Did you install your "clean" OS 9.1 on a new HD or partition? If so, you
will need to move your Microsoft User Data folder from it's old location (in
your OS 9.1 Documents folder) to the Documents folder for your new OS 9.1.
Try to think of it like this: Classic applications have no knowledge of OS
X -- they "think" they are running just as before, so when a classic
application looks for the "Documents" folder, it will find the one that it
would if you were just running 9.1.
BTW, because of this, all of the scripts for Entourage that worked before
still work, so no real need for someone to write OS X scripts. Although,
I'm sure Paul will come up with some amazing things....
