Categories in IMAP account

G

Glenn Kennedy

I¹ve set up Categories for all my contacts in Ent. X.
When I go to upgrade to Ent. 2004 I have a feeling I am going to lose all
those Categories.
I tested it on another machine and everything but Categories shows up.
Is there any way to preserve them when I upgrade?

Categories will be preserved. None of your user data is disturbed when
upgrading the application.

You shouldn't lose any categories. (however if you do, you can go back to
Entourage X, and use my Export-Import Entourage X scripts to export
everything that has categories - contacts , groups, events, tasks, notes,
messages - and import them all after clearing all those out of 2004 (to
avoid duplicates). You can get Export-Import at

MacScripter.net <http://macscripter.net/scriptbuilders/>

Bit, honestly, you shouldn't need them.
