	Whew, what a title. Anyway, I have an Address Book question that has me stumped, and I cannot believe Apple didn't provide a way to do this -- especially now that we can have "smart groups". Here's the deal: 1) I have a huge list of email address in various groups, some with over 2000 contacts. 2) I want to add data to the notes field in ALL of the cards for a specific group WITHOUT having to do it for each and every card, manually. Is this possible with Address Book? Logic would deduce that you could select a group and change a field for all items, just like you can in iTunes and iPhoto, etc. -- but I just don't see how to do this in AB. Any help would be MUCH appreciated! Maury
