When I try to import holidays into my entourage calendar, it does not direct
me to an 'outside source' but tries to find a file on my computer.
Can anyone explain/help me through this one?

No. Microsoft supplies Holiday files with Entourage in the format that
Entourage needs, so that's the file you need. It has holidays for just about
every country in the world, several religions, and then some. It doesn't let
you navigate to other files since it couldn't import them anyway - they're
generally designed only for either Outlook on a Windows PC or Apple iCal. If
it turns out that they are available as .ics files, you could do a Get Info
on the .ics file, set it to Open With Entourage, then open it, and the
holidays will be entered directly.
