transferring files & settings

I am attempting to transfer an extensive email collection and an address book
from my old blue & white G3 Mac to my new MacBook; I'm using Entourage 2004
on both machines. The G3 is too old to go into Firewire Target mode, so I
exported all the material into an Entourage archive, copied it onto a flash
drive, and imported it into Entourage on the MacBook. But I can't find the
email files, and nothing has shown up in the Address Book. What do I still
need to do, or what have I done wrong?

I'm not sure what you mean by "I exported all the material into an
Entourage archive".

All you need to do is copy the /Users/you/Documents/Microsoft User
Data/ folder from one machine to the other.
