Yes, you can use your entire G5 Microsoft User Data folder on the MacBook, and then delete what you don't want to keep. But there is no separate Entourage Address Book. I believe Entourage's Address Book is embedded in the massive Database. It's not a separate file. /Users/[Your User Name]/Documents/Microsoft User Data/Office 2004 Identities/Main Identity Inside Main Identity, you have four files: Main Identity Mailing Lists Signatures Rules Database You could move (copy) the entire Main Identity folder from the G5 to the MacBook, and make MacBook Entourage use that as its Main Identity. If you did not want the mail/messages from the G5 to be on the MacBook, you could open Entourage on the MacBook, select all the mail/mail folders in the Entourage browser window, and then delete them. That would leave you with whatever you did not delete, which would include the remaining Address Book. I suppose it would also leave intact the calendar items, rules, groups, accounts, signatures, etc. Backup before you mess with any of these methods! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Roger S.
