I copied my Entourage Main Identity file to a ZIP drive. I then copied the 2001 Identities folder to your MUD folder on my iBook. I then used the Import function under File to import the data from my 2001 folder into Entourage X. Thanks for your help!

It's much simpler to do the Import. -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> archives: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.letterrip.com/> old-archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.boingo.com/>
