Apple Address Book

Is it possible to use the Apple Address Book instead of the Entourage one in
Entourage 2004? More apps are compatible with the Apple one. Thanks

Sort of. You can use Address Book, but I don't think this is the way you
would want to have it. If Entourage is set as your default e-mail program, a
new (Entourage) message window should show up if you click on "Send Email"
when selecting someone's address in Apple's Address Book. There is currently
no way (nor do I think there ever will be) to create a new e-mail in
Entourage and make it use Apple's Address Book instead of its own.

No that is not possible, and is unlikely to become possible in future
versions as the apple address book is far more limited than the entourage
one.

What you can do instead is use Paul B's (shareware) script suite "Sync
Entourage-Address Book" <http://www.scriptbuilders.net/category.php?id=1959>

This will allow you to sync the apple address book with the entourage one so
the same information is kept up top date in both.
