Thomas, Here's a copy of a message I sent to the Entourage list on May 3. I received no response so take that for what it's worth. (I am using Office X, and MyRealBox also.) ----- So I've been experimenting with the calendaring feature in Entourage X and accepting invitations sent to me via an iCal compliant server. Cool. When I receive one of these invitations I can accept it, and it's automatically added to my Entourage calendar. Cooler! However, when Entourage gets ready to notify me about this appointment, I get the following error: "Microsoft Office Notifications cannot start. The database for your identity is locked. To fix this problem, use the finder to unlock the Database and Database Cache files in your identity folder." These files are, of course, not locked. Every time I reboot Entourage I get this error. Not so cool. :-) I've found that if I -delete- these appointments, the error then will not occur on the next launch of Entourage. Also, if it makes a difference the iCal compliant server is a NIMS 3.x server (a Novell product, sorry MS faithful!). :-) again. I don't know how many people ever use this neat feature of Entourage, so I'm not sure if this has been encountered or not. It may already be known and fixed in the soon-to-be-released Office v.X SR 1 for all I know, but I thought I'd ask.
