The simplest thing is just so save the script code below that Allen sent in Script Editor (in OS X), as a compiled script (the default) and put it into your Entourage Script Menu items folder and run it from Entourage. Or if you liked having it as an independent applet, save it as an Application (NOT "Classic Application").

Subject: Re: Swap Work and Home address script for Entourage X
I have what I believe to be the same script, and it works for me in EvX. The script is:
-- Swap Work and Home Addresses
-- © Microsoft Corporation, 2000. All rights reserved.
tell application "Microsoft Entourage"
set theItems to selection
repeat with i in the theItems
if class of i is contact then
set StartAddress to the (home address of i)
set DestinationAddress to the (business address of i)
set the home address of i to DestinationAddress
set the business address of i to StartAddress
end if
end repeat
end tell
