This looks like a very interesting Script! As usual, you ROCK, Diane:)! So

I don't always have a Category for each of my Entourage Contacts!
Some of my Contacts exist in Groups only, but not as Individual Contacts!

Some Contacts are just email addresses, without names! I don't want to bring
Sync those Contacts to iPhone/Address Book, because, without First Last
Name, they'll Sort at the top of my Addresses, before Letter A! Assigning
Letter Z to both First Last Name would Sort them at the Bottom of the List,
but that would be too massy...

Here is another approach to those Nameless Contacts:

Leave them in Entourage, and use them, if ever, for whatever other email
compaign..., although that would be really rare...

After I am all settled in iPhone, I could Delete my Entourage Groups, except
for the Groups that have those No Name Email Address Only Contacts!

For now, my initial reaction is to wait till I get more replies (I hope) to
this topic...

That thought has crossed my mind... Maybe I'll Uncheck the items that are
Suspect, as far as their Incompatibility with Snow Leopard... I already have
some on that list. Hopefully, Migration Assistant is flexible enough to let
me pick each item, as opposed to All or Nothing!

I feel a bit awkward asking anyone to help me leave software which they love
using! I too like my Entourage Email. It served me really well for years!
But it's time to move on, particularly given iPhone 4 etc. Plus, MSFT is
moving to Outlook for Mac, thus another Big Change! Between all that, I am
willing to lose some of Entourage, or and Outlook, Bells and Whistles for
the PEACE of mind (hopefully) of Apple's Mail Syncing with iPhone 4, which I
am yet to get - a whole new world....

Thanks again, Diane!
