Question ID: 580361
I would like to import addresses into my Mac OS X Tiger address book
from a professional directory to which I belong. The directory is in
MS Word format, and the structure goes like this with entries in quote
marks:
"Email:" (bold type) "firstlastname@domain.com" (regular type) then
one of the following 3 words always in bold type "Founded", "Website",
"Joined". Please provide a macro that will search the entire document
and make a list of email addresses that can be imported to my Mac
Address Book.

Hi there,

Could you provide access to your word document so it can be used to test the macro?

Thanks,

Yes I can provide access. I can put it up on my dot Mac account unless
you have another suggestion as to where to put it.

The membership directory that I wish to process has been placed in my
public folder on Dot Mac. Member name "stevemcintosh"

To open someone's Public folder:
If you're using Mac OS X version 10.3 or later, choose Go > iDisk, and
then choose Other User's Public Folder from the submenu. Type the
member name of the person whose Public folder you want to open in the
Member Name field, and then click Connect. If a password is required,
type it in the Password field and click OK. The person's Public folder
opens on your desktop.
If you're using Windows XP, use iDisk Utility for Windows XP. To
download iDisk Utility for Windows XP, go to www.mac.com, and click
.Mac Downloads.
If you're using Windows 2000, open My Computer, choose Map Network
Drive from the Tools menu, then click "Web folder or FTP site." Enter
the following as the location to add:
http://idisk.mac.com/membername/Public (where "membername" is the
other person's .Mac member name). If a password is required, enter
"public" in the User Name field, and then enter the Public folder
password in the Password field.
If you're using Windows 98, open My Computer, double-click the Web
Folders icon, then double-click Add Web Folder. Enter the following as
the location to add: http://idisk.mac.com/membername/Public (where
"membername" is the other person's .Mac member name). If a password is
required, enter "public" in the User Name field, and then enter the
Public folder password in the Password field.
