Run the Entourage database utility to make sure that your DB isn't

Verify option. If the database reports problems that is why the Daemon
is giving you these errors. If it reports problems you can try rebuild
to repair the database (Note: there is a known issue to Microsoft that
rebuild can cause problems which won't let you launch into your main
identity - period). If rebuild works the daemon errors should stop.
Finally, you can turn off the daemon check by going to the last option
set prefs and untick >Perform Database Integrity....<. I wouldn't
suggest this though as it is trying to tell you that there's a problem
with the Entourage DB.

The other thing I would encourage everyone to do is scream bloody
murder to Microsoft regarding all these issues we're dealing with in
08. They don't seem to listen but I've always felt the squeaky wheel
gets the oil but it is Microsoft we're dealing with.

I ran the utility, and everything was ok, and database rebuild was required. Now the issue occurs when I turn on my macbook, and when ever I use any MS office program.
Very frustrating.

There must still be some kind of database problem. First, I'd suggest
getting into System Preferences, Accounts, and for the Login Items for
your user account, locate and delete any instances of the database
daemon. It normally is there only once; if more than once, that may be
your problem. If it is there only once, deleting it here may not fix
your problem but it won't hurt. The daemon will start and add itself
back when you launch Entourage next.

Try doing the rebuild a second time. If that comes up clean (no errors
found), it could be some undetectable corruption. That's been an issue
in the past, but as far as I know, all known instances of that have been
fixed.

If the problem still exists, launch Entourage and try switching to a new
identity: From the Entourage menu, select "Switch Identity", and create
a new identity. See if the daemon crashes while running a while in that
new identity. Since this new identity will be using a newly created,
separate database, there should be no corruption. If the crash occurs,
the problem is in the program, not the data. In that case, try using the
"Remove Office" application to remove your Office apps, and then
reinstall. This will not affect your data in any way.

I accomplished the first paragraph by removing the database daemon through system preferences and rebuild the database. The same problem "Database Error" returned. I was unable to try the switch identities, due to the database daemon. In this case should I try removing and reinstalling Office Apps?

Just to be sure, exactly how did you remove the Microsoft Database daemon?
The same problem "Database Error"
returned.

Was this the exact wording for the error?
I was unable to try the switch identities, due to the database
daemon.

If you move the Office 2008 Identities folder to the desktop and let
Entourage create a new one, does it open with no problems? It should open in
a new Identity for testing.
In this case should I try removing and reinstalling Office Apps?

No. Reinstalling doesn't fix problems like this.

Steps to help determine where the problem is located.

1) you can eliminate your Identity by creating a new Identity in Entourage
and see if you experience the same problem.

2) if a new Identity still exhibits the same issues, then create a new User
in System Preferences and test Entourage there.

A) test first in a new Identity
B) move your Main Identity in your regular User to Shared folder. Now in the
new User, drag from Shared your Main Identity to the Microsoft User Data
folder --> Office 2008 Identities folder. Does it open in the new User?

3) If the problems still exist in the new User, it's a problem with your
base OS files. If running the Apple combo does not fix, then you might need
to do an "Archive & Install".

I tried the download as suggested, and still have the same problem, only now
the MS Database Daemon appears before even opening any MS Office 08
application.

I offered several suggestion like moving your Identity to the desktop and I
asked you several questions. You have not responded to those yet.
