I tried that but I'm getting a lot of fields in the wrong places with
this approach. Now Contact has more fields than Apple's Address book, so
for my needs, I could use the sync to Apple's AB for most simple uses
[phone number to call someone, e.g., address to mail something], but I
need to be able to import a clean file. 

For example, I had the import put my local newspaper's fields all as work
work work even for their name fields...

I was able to import a modified addressbook into Now Contact, losing only
the categories and groups of Entourage.  Perhaps you can export a clean
file from Now Contact?  I emailed PowerOn and they said the sync function
with AppleAB would not be available for months.

you want to export vcards. try simple drag and drop of groups from the
entourage address book. also, check out version tracker, there are a lot
of shareware and freeware utilities, and one was to sync entourage with
the address book if I remember rightly.

What is the LDIF format for addresses? And how can I export from
Entourage to LDIF to import to Address Book to sync with PM?
