I'm running Jaguar on a PowerBook G4. I'm using Office X. I have an
applescript I wrote to backup all my essential files to a CD. I'd like to
include the Office/Entourage Addressbook file but I can't locate it on my
hard drive. Does anybody know what the filename is or what folder it's in?
And I can take it from there! Appreciate any help! Thanks.

Everything gets stored in the honking great "Database" file inside your
identity folder:

~/Documents/Microsoft User Data/Office 2004 Identities/Main Identity/

Office v.X used something like "Office v.X Identities" instead of "Office
2004 Identities", IIRC.

Perhaps you need an Applescript to export your contacts into a file to get
backed up.

Cheers,

Chris
