VCF files missing on export

Would there be a reason why *all contacts wouldn't be exported from
Entourage when all are selected and dragged to a directory?

It's very strange. It seems like 158 contacts seems to be the max that
it will do at once. But If I start at the top and select 158 of them,
it only exports 156. And at some undetermined maximum, it will do all
of the selected bunch.

I did figure out a workaround to get them all... if I fake like I want
to e-mail all of my contacts to somebody and drag all of my contacts as
attachments, I can then look in my saved attachments directory and find
them all. But that's an annoying process to go through...

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

Select (via shift-click top and bottom) and drag no more than 100 at a time.
