With the help of Bruce Sanderson of New Zealand, I was able to track down and fix a problem in the script when short date format is "dd/mm/yy" instead of the US format of "mm/dd/yy". Others had some problems with the "date string" syntax; I have written straight AppleScript code to calculate the date string now, instead of using either the Date String For addition (OS 8.5 and earlier) or the "date string" command from Standard Additions (OS 8.6 and up). However, the "Time String For" osax is still required if you have 8.5 or earlier. The script will now test which syntax to use, "time string of" or "time string for". If you attempt to recompile the script and do not have the "Time String For" scripting addtion, you will see some odd code in a couple of lines. Unless you get an error running the script, that can be ignored. The new script has been given a version number to distinguish it from earlier incarnations of the script, which has gone through <many> versions. I have called it version 9.1; the "9" is in honor of Entourage v9.0; the ".1" is to show this is the first revision of the Entourage version of the script. You can obtain the script from either my web site or the AppleScript Central site (as soon as I upload it and Erik posts it): <http://homepage.mac.com/allenwatson/> <http://www.applescriptcentral.com/> It is a Stuffit archive called "Crevier Archive E.sit". -- Peace, Allen Watson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> XNS name: =Allen Watson A Mac family since 1984 My web page: <http://home.earthlink.net/~allenwatson/> -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To search the archives: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.boingo.com/>
