Importing Messages from desktop to laptop versions of Entourage

C

I want to move all my message folders (and messages) from the
Entourage on my desktop to that on my laptop, but Entourage doesn't
have any Export options other than "Export Contacts". When I hook the
two computers together with FireWire and then open Entourage on the
laptop (appearing on the Desktop screen) it opens the Entouage on the
Desktop, so that doesn't help.

Any solutions? Thanks.

Do you have messages on the laptop that you want merged, or will this be a
new Entourage Identity?

See this page for steps in moving to a new computer:

All you have to do is copy the "Microsoft User Data" folder from yout
Documents folder on the desktop computer to the laptop computer.
