Unfortunately I don?t have a Palm, nor do I have Outlook, but thanks for the suggestion. Maybe this tip could work for others.

I tried to save Entourage addresses as vCard?s but could not find a way to do them in a batch. With 1300 names I thought that doing them one at a time was out of the questions. Ultimately I saved the files as a .csv and imported them in to Outlook. I was not able to export my calendar from Entourage to Outlook. An alternative that might work if you have a Palm is to sync your Entourage to the Palm desktop then import the Palm desktop to Outlook. There should be free sync software for this on Microsoft?s web site. Check out http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/results.aspx?freetext=entourage%20synchro nize&productID=&DisplayLang=ee <http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/results.aspx?freetext=entourage%20synchr onize&productID=&DisplayLang=ee> And Chaupra Pocket Mirror (standard edition) v 2.0 is bundled with most Palm OS software CD for syncing the Palm to Outlook.

Not so simple as just switching to & fro one address book between two different users, but at least both users would have access to the same info (provided you export & import each time you add a name to the address book)...Cathy ---------- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] on behalf of Jim/Marcia Bennett Reply To: macgroup at erdos.math.louisville.edu Sent: Sunday, December 11, 2005 10:48 PM To: macgroup at erdos.math.louisville.edu Subject: Re: MacGroup: Sharing Entourage Address Book [heur][bcc][faked-from] Jerry, thanks for the lead. I scanned the 14-page list of scripts for Entourage, but only found one that seemed it might do what I need. I downloaded it, but the four and a half page Read Me instructions totally overwhelmed my ability to comprehend, and scared me off. Also it did not mention the exact task I'm trying to accomplish. It dealt with sharing an Address Book between users on different computers, and between different Identities within the same user account, but no mention of sharing between two separate user accounts on the same computer.
