It is possible that the first entry in that list is in the 'first name' field and the last name field is empty (or has a space character in it). Check how they are set up by opening each contact. As for the quotes, it is possible that when you copy-pasted info in there was a comma or some other punctuation in the field - Entourage will automatically 'protect' such entries with quote characters, as do many character delimited import routines. -- Barry -- 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/>
