[QUOTE="Interactive, post: 1574614, member: 281870"] Well I'm into my Mac for well over a year now. I'd say I'm fully in the Mac camp now and there's no looking back. That said I still think the native "office" apps for Mac are inferior to MS Office in most ways. Yes, Mail offers this but it's far from well executed. It's awesome that they built this into the native Mail app, but it just doesn't perform as well as other solutions. I finally stumbled across something that has given me what I need: [url=http://www.whopaste.com]Instant Contacts for Mac OS X Address Book, Daylite, Entourage, or Google Contacts[/url] Unfortunately this doesn't drop contacts into Office for Mac, but it populates the contacts in Apple's Contact app and I leave sync services ON at all times to keep things in check. It's a work-around, but I had been using sync services anyway so that apps like Messages would have my contacts. Total time from the moment I copy and extract contact info to the time it's available in Office for Mac is only a few seconds. I've been using the trial version for a couple of weeks and am about to send the guy money for my license! ($20) I hope someone finds this helpful. Enjoy! [/QUOTE]
