Right; you seemed to want a way to know if a message originally had attachments, and eMA does provide that. I'm looking forward to a future version of Entourage in which the scripting support will include the ability to make a link to a file. (That is possible manually now, but not by script.) Then, a script can save an attachment, indicate the path in the message if desired, and also make a link between the message and the external file, so it can easily be retrieved. When that happens, an archive ought to preserve not only the file name but the file path of the location in which it was saved. I simulate that now by my script that records the path in the actual message, which is part of what gets archived. I have another simple script that lets me select the file path string and then either open the file or reveal it in the Finder. -- Microsoft MVP for Entourage/OE/Word (MVPs are volunteers) Allen Watson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Entourage FAQ site: <http://www.entourage.mvps.org/> AppleScripts for Outlook Express and Entourage: <http://members.thinkaccess.net/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/Scripts/> Entourage Help Pages: <http://www.entourage.mvps.org/> -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> archives: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.letterrip.com/> old-archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.boingo.com/>
