1. How do I get my Address Book contacts into Entourage?
2. How do I synch my Entourage online with anyone or any service?
3. How do I get tasks I email from Windows XP Outlook to my Entourage
to slide into my Tasks?

I'm sure I will have others ....

These options are not available with Entourage X. SyncServices were added
with Microsoft Office 2004 for Mac 11.2.3 Update.

For Entourage X, check out these scripts:

4. How do I top post in e-mail replies; the default seems to be
bottom-post.

5. Are the previous questions addressable by upgrading to Entourage the
next generation or whatever it is called.

6. Is another upgrade of Entourage coming.

This is a preference. Set Preferences under Reply & Forward tab.

I think you'll be pleased with the update. You can, as I mentioned, import
using scripts with Entourage X.

There is no definitive date released by MS, but a guess would be sometime
between July and September of 2007. This is the latest guess on the rumor
mills. I find out the day that you do. MS does not share this info with
MVPs.

Ok, so if I get the latest Entourage, I can synch tasks, events and
contacts with my Outlook at work by e-mailing them back and forth? What
about Notes?

Your original question was about syncing your Address Book into Entourage.
You did not mention that it was your Outlook AB. I thought you were
referring to the Mac Address Book.

To import your PC data into Entourage see "Convert Mail from Windows to Mac"

You should be able to use Entourage X without upgrading. Note however that
Entourage X does not have sync services. You would need to upgrade to Office
2004 for those capabilities.
