I'll reply back to the MacDV list just in case this info will help 
anyone else. (I added "OT" to the subject to indicate off-topic 
discussion.)

The way I moved my contacts from Entourage from OS 9 into the Jaguar 
address book was to just drag them out of the address listing into a 
folder on the desktop.  This created ".vcf" files that I then dragged 
into the address book in 10.2.  It's pretty straightforward -- 
drag-and-drop.  Like I said, I did this with Entourage (and QuickMail 
Pro as well, which also creates ".vcf" files when dragging out an 
address book entry), and it should work the same with Outlook Express, 
but I don't know about Outlook (the client for MS Exchange Servers)...

Hope this helps.
