That should cover it, one way or another.
I answered in your other thread, but it should go here as well under a more relevant subject: > A. Is there an extensive Entourage manual available anywhere online? > No, not really. The best thing I know of it the book, Office 2001 for Macintosh: The Missing Manual, by Nan Barber & David Reynolds. But even that excellent book lacks the trick for populating a new group that Paul shared. However, starting a new empty group, then selecting multiple contacts from the Address Book and dragging them to the group, is almost as quick, and makes a quick way to <add> a bunch of contacts to a group. I'll add this: I think there is room for a good "Tips and Tricks" book or booklet for Entourage. There is enough lore that has been unearthed to make an interesting collection. Some of us are considering a good Entourage web site, similar to the old MacEmail site that existed for Claris Emailer and Outlook Express. It has languished since Omar Shahine had to let it go, and Diane Ross's poor health slowed her down somewhat. But she and I (and whoever else cares to contribute) may be putting something together for Entourage. One part of that would be to collect and categorize many of the useful tidbits from this mailing list and the newsgroup. In addition, there may be parts not entirely for free. That is, there may be scripts and some documents that cost money. We've got to pay for the site and get some recompense for the time we put in, after all. This is all blue sky for now and so if it never happens, don't blame me! -- Microsoft MVP for Entourage/OE/Word (MVPs are volunteers) Allen Watson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> XNS name: =Allen Watson Applescripts for Outlook Express and Entourage: <http://homepage.mac.com/allenwatson/> -- 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/>
