How to restore a few adresses?

[Marc Noël]

Hi, I removed a few adresses in entourage and now want to restore these
Making a copy of the whole database again would change the rest of my
information
Is there a way to restore a few adresses (without to restore the whole users
id map)?

Do you mean you deleted people from your Address Book?

It sounds like you have a backup of your old database. You can temporarily
switch to this backup (choose "Switch Identity" from the Entourage menu),
drag the contacts to the Desktop to create .vcf files, then switch back to
your main identity and drag the .vcf files back to your Address Book.

If your old identity is now available from the Switch Identity menu item,
you may need to rename it and drag it back into your Microsoft User Data
folder. Be careful not to overwrite your current identity.

I can give more detailed instruction if you provide more information about
the nature of your backup.

Hello thanks for the tip worked fine
Does the same trick work for items (appointments) which were removed from
the agenda?

Calendar Items can also be dragged to the Desktop, creating .ics files. You
can then drag them back to the Entourage calendar.
