My shareware scripts, Export-Import Entourage X, let you do both of those
things. Select just the group you want to export : if any of its members
aren't actually contacts but just name-and-address entries with the @ sign,
first run the "Make Group Contacts" script.  Then (or if not) run
"Contacts-Groups Export from X", choosing to make full contact exports for
group members. On your other computer, run the "Contacts Import into X"
script: you have a choice of how to deal with duplicates: replace with
imports, don't import, or keep both, with a further choice to open the
duplicates so you can compare and make adjustments yourself before deleting
one of them.

The Contacts Export files will open in Excel, plus there's a helper script
in the the Xcel Extras folder should you want to make an Excel Worksheet
that contains a rundown of _all_ your groups in one file. There's also a lot
more (calendar, tasks, notes, signatures, etc.) that you may not need at the
moment but might want at some other point.

You can get the scripts at

PLEASE always state which version of Entourage you are using - 2001 or X.
It's often impossible to answer your questions otherwise.
