Hi Bill,

Thanks very much for the info. I hadn't been planning on upgrading my Microsoft Office but I guess that would be the only way for me to be able to keep using my old database of contacts that I have built up since the early 1990s. Even Apple's Address Book doesn't seem to be able to do case sensitive searching.

I appreciate the help.

Bob

 Is there a way to do case sensitive searching in the Advanced Find
 feature of Entourage? I have imported a database of contacts from
 some other software into Entourage as a tab-delimited file. In one of
 the custom fields there are category codes from the  other software,
 which consist of upper and lower case letters. I need to be able to
 search on each letter separately to group my imported contacts into
 Entourage groups. When I search for contacts with a specific letter
 code in a specific case (upper or lower), the resulting list that
 comes back combines contacts in both the upper and lower cases for
 that specific letter.

Hi Bob!

I don't believe Entourage 11.4.0's Advanced Find is case sensitive but
Entourage 2008's Advanced Search using raw queries is case sensitive. If
you've been looking for an excuse to upgrade then this may be what you're
needing.

Hope this helps!
