That's correct. Barry already pointed this out and I must have simply remembered incorrectly. > It's been reported. Basically, Entourage pops up that message for any event > created by script.

BUT, since the message ISN'T an accepted invitation, there is no invitee and that is why Entourage is letting me invite someone. HOWEVER, since you can't invite someone to an invitation you have received and accepted, the event isn't sent to your invitee. Definitely a bug and, for me, since I use the scripts all the time, an ugly one. > It sure sounds like a bug. What happens if you save and close, then re-open > it? Nothing changes. The event still shows my invitee, but nothing has been sent to them. I think I might have it figured out in my little exposition above. > What sort of account is your default account?

I don't think the account type has anything to do with it. I find it interesting that they changed the way Entourage views AppleScript-created events. I wonder what modified feature caused them to change the previous behavior which caused this bug? -Remo Del Bello -- "You need to focus on the neglected food groups: The whipped groups, the congealed group, and the chocolotastic." - Dr. Nick Riviera on The Simpsons -- 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/>
