[Jeanot]

Hello,
I'd like to import my Entourage X contact list to my Yahoo mail adress
book. So, I need a .cvs file.
When I export my Entourage contact list, I get a .txt file !
Someone has a solution ??
Thnx in advance.

Actually, when you export it, it becomes a Tab Separated Values text file.
You might be able to convert it to a format Yahoo can work with by opening
it in Excel (choose Tab Delimited/Separated Values if prompted to choose a
file type), and then saving in Comma Separated Values format.

If that doesn't work, try Paul Berkowitz's "Export-Import Entourage" script
package that can do this conversion for you.

Not just any old .csv file either: it has to be in the same format as
exports from Outlook Windows or Outlook Express Windows to work with Yahoo.

If you get my Export-Import Entourage X scripts from

MacScripter.net <http://macscripter.net/scriptbuilders/>

read the ReadMe Installation and Outlook sections. You'll see there are
scripts and settings to export both contacts and calendar from Entourage to
Yahoo.

Thanks a lot for your help. Never seen before the Excel fonction to
record a file in .cvs format.
So, I did with my .txt file ... I just need now to change some column
places to adapt to right format for Yahoo adressbook import.

Regards.
