I just installed Snow Leopard and now i notice when i am in Entourage i can
not search my address book. When in the address book and i type a name nothing
happens. All of the contacts are there and i can scroll through them but
search feature does not work.

This could be the issue that was described in these threads, "Snow Leopard

results missing in Snow Leopard, Possible fix" Monday, August 31, 2009 8:46

Think I got it fixed. If you are not seeing any Spotlight results even
after a rebuild, and your Caches/Metadata/Microsoft folder is missing:

Go to Applications/Microsoft Office 2008/Office and manually launch the
Microsoft Sync Services application. It's faceless, so you won't see
anything happen, but if you then go to the Metadata folder you should see
the Microsoft folder reappear and your caches start
repopulating.--<[email protected]> </quote>
