Scripts can accomplish lots of things that you normally couldn't do
otherwise. Paste the following four lines into the Script Editor found in
/Applications/AppleScript, change "Your folder name here" to the name as it
should appear, select the "/" folder in Entourage and see if this script
will rename it:


tell application "Microsoft Entourage"
    set badFolder to selection
    set name of badFolder to "Your folder name here"
end tell 


Hope this helps! bill
