For whatever reason, that did allow me (so-far) to run with the two-week old backup (and Office is now updated to 12.1.1). But the newer version of the database still had the unrepairable corruption of the Contacts. And I had done a lot of contact updating since then so I'm out a couple of hours of work reentering all the changes/additions. Frankly, this has me very concerned about the stability of Entourage. As someone who is very technical, most other reports of problems I could dismiss as "user error". But not this one. I have a backup strategy that should let me recover from just about anything. But not something like this where the database is corrupt for a while but doesn't show it until later. Meanwhile yesterday, I was setting up (Apple) Mail (and iCal and Address Book). While there are a few things Entourage can do better (multiple schedules, send-only accounts, custom headers), I'm not sure it's worth the risk. -- Larry Stone [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.stonejongleux.com/ -- 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/>
