Inserting items (not attachments)

[Bocaboy]

Has anyone figured out a way to insert an item (a contact, note,
message) into an email without having to launch a separate message to
attach it? This is easy to do in Outlook, and even has a dedicated
icon on the ribbon. I find myself often trying to attach a contact
into an existing email, but actually have to use a separate email to
do it. Is there a script that will do this, or am I missing something.

Thanks for the help!

Why? What happens when you try?

You can attach an item to a message by dragging it onto the message itself,
or by clicking the Attach button on the toolbar.

I know the feature you're seeing in Outlook and it doesn't exist in
Entourage. It would be very nice to have because you can use it to
select items from elsewhere in Entourage without leaving your current view.

Please be sure to let Microsoft know you'd like to see this feature in
future versions by using the Help --> Send Feedback mechanism in any
Office application.
