Import Entourage X MRU's into Entorage 2004

I recently upgraded a client from Panther/Office X to Tiger/Office
2004. All of his mail, address book, calendar, task, etc. info came
across fine.

Good, bad, or otherwise he relies heavily on the MRU. Many e-mail
addresses that should have been added to the address book never were
since they came up so easily from the MRU. He desperately wants me to
retrieve the Entourage X MRU data and get it into Entourage 2004.

Does anyone know how to do this?

Thank you.

It's not possible.

He can still open Entourage X, make contacts off the MRU list (start typing
a name addressing a new email message, click Return to auto-complete an MRU
name & address, then either control-click and choose Add to Address Book, or
simple click to select it and cmd-= [command-equals] to do the same). That
makes a new contact in the Address Book. Save. Then drag the contact to the
desktop to make a .vcf file. Back in Entourage 2004 later, drag the .vcf
files into Entourage to make contacts there. Or re-do the X-to-2004 import
instead of .vcf dragging.
