I keep address stacks on my home and office machines which I'd like to
keep equivalent and up to date. When I update either of them, I'd like
to be able to merge the two together on a weekly or monthly basis to
create an up-to-date address stack for home & office.

Obviously, duplicates would need to be eliminated keeping the most recent
address card for an individual. Also, the new stack should be a union of
the office & home machines stacks so that no one is inadvertently
eliminated from the stack.

Anyone have a script or stack that can do something like this? This must
be a very common need/problem for anyone that uses hypercard on more than
1 machine. Please reply to me directly and I'll summarize to the net.
