I'm new to Mac computers and can't find the data file for Entourage.
Can somebody tell me what it is called and where it is located?

Which data file are you trying to find? Calendar? Contacts (also
called Address Book)? email? etc

From a dude (dudette) named Mickey Stevens, May 30, 2003:

" This is all stored in the Database and Messages files of your identity.
Your identity folder is located here in Entourage 2001:
Macintosh HD:Documents:Microsoft User Data:Office 2001 Identities:<Your
Identity>

If possible, you probably want to copy over the entire Microsoft User Data
folder. You didn't tell us if you are going to upgrade to Entourage X in OS
X or whether you will use Entourage 2001 in the OS X Classic mode. If you
are going to use Entourage 2001 in OS X Classic, you need to drag the
Microsoft User Data folder to this location on the new computer:
Macintosh HD/Users/<Your User>/Documents/

If you are upgrading to Entourage X as well as OS X, you don't need to do
that. Simply copy the Microsoft User Data folder to some location on the
HD, and then launch Entourage X. You'll be prompted to import information
from another application. You can choose Entourage 2001 and then locate
your identity folder that you copied over."

All Entourage information is stored in the
[UserNameHome]/Documents/Microsoft User Data/Office [version #]
Identities/Main Identity folder (assuming you haven't changed the identity
name).

It is a good idea to regularly backup the entire Main Identity folder, or
the Identity folder for anyone who uses entourage on a regular basis.
