I have a home office network with two computers. Does anyone know if I can
hook up the two computers to share Entourage¹s contacts, calendars, etc?

Thanks!

Entourage's data files are kept in your Documents folder. Make an alias of
the Microsoft User Data folder (or even the entire Documents folder) on the
other computer and it should work just fine. The computer hosting the files
will need to have file sharing on.

Alec,

Can you please give me more information regarding how to access the info
over the network? I have 3 eMac's connected locally and would like to have
one calendar serve as the hub and be able to view it from the other two
computers. Would I also be able to make changes to the "hub" Entourage file
from the other two computers? I am interested in using both the calendar and
contacts.
I appreciate any info you can give me!

This will work for one user who wants to synchronize his data between
multiple computers, but is not a good idea for calendar sharing between
multiple users. Is that what you're trying to do?
