Thanks for the clear explanation Paul. I wasn't suggesting that the problem
lay with Entourage. I fully expected that the fix, if there was one, was
going to be something that needed to be done in Script Editor. I was hoping
more for something that wasn't going to affect my code this much, but your
workarounds work nicely as advertised.

Thanks!
