I think Beth may have meant just for posting pre-compiled scripts for download. I have no idea whether the Entourage website could cope with being a download host. Anyone who ever tried to download from the former AppleScript Central web site will remember what a hassle that could be due to limited hosting and download capabilities. Whereas I haven't heard of a single person ever having any trouble with Macscripter.net since they took over. Both Allen and I and I think Barry too have iDisks. We could post our own compiled scripts with Script Editor creator codes in "QuickScripts" directories. They's have no documentation like our formal script packages, and we could just leave them up for a week or so. (After that, people who downloaded would not now what the scripts were for without documentation and would write us to ask, which would be even more bother.) That might work. -- Paul Berkowitz MVP MacOffice Entourage FAQ Page: <http://www.entourage.mvps.org/faq/index.html> AppleScripts for Entourage: <http://macscripter.net/scriptbuilders/> PLEASE always state which version of Microsoft Office you are using - **2004**, X or 2001.
