I've posted a script package on my web site: <http://homepage.mac.com/WebObjects/FileSharing.woa/wa/default?user=allenwat son&templatefn=FileSharing.html> The script package is called "Contact Cleanup Suite." There is a Stuffit archive (.sit) file, and a file called "Readme for Contact Cleanup Ste," which is also contained in the archive. If you want to read the details about what these scripts do, you can download the Readme file first to see if you want the scripts. The brief version: This suite consists of two AppleScripts for Microsoft Entourage: Find Dupe Contacts Merge Contacts The two scripts are meant to help you when you have more than one record tin the Address Book for the same person or company. Perhaps you have accidentally entered some contacts twice, with slightly different information. Perhaps, in setting up Microsoft Entourage, you imported contact information from more than one source, such as the Outlook Express Address Book and Now Contact, Palm Desktop, or Consultant. These scripts will help you find and eliminate any duplicate records, while preserving any information unique to one of the records. They will not perform this task without user intervention. The part played by the user will be explained later in the Readme file. The first script, Find Dupe Contacts, locates possible "duplicate" contacts in the Address Book. The second script, Merge Contacts, will take all the fields from two contacts selected in the Address Book and transfer the fields (with user control) into the first of the two contacts, effectively merging the information. I just uploaded these files to my web site. I can see them there on my iDisk. Yet, when I go there with the filesharing link in my browser, they don't show up. Apparently there is some kind of delay before mac.com's servers will show the files, so if you don't see them at first, try again a little later. -- Peace, Allen Watson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> XNS name: =Allen Watson A Mac family since 1984 My web page: <http://home.earthlink.net/~allenwatson/> -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To search the archives: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.boingo.com/>
