Programming for Entourage...

Robert

Is there a site that gives a good overview of programming utilities for
Entourage? I would like to look into creating a desktop view that shows
the next several appointments, todo items, etc.

I don't know of any one particular site that talks about programming
Entourage. You can find a great collection of scripts at
<http://www.scriptbuilders.net/>.

You can read more about AppleScript here:


There is already a program that has the features you're looking for.
Entourage Today is the Macintosh alternative to Outlook Today. It too
offers calendar events, tasks, and optionally unread mail in one view. You
can download a trial copy with purchase information here:

I appreciate that...I was a little more interested in doing it myself as
a learning tool. :)

Thanks for the tips though...

It took me two years in all, including learning both AppleScript Studio and
Objective C in the process. You're welcome to replicate the effort
(otherwise known as "reinventing the wheel"). I was pretty expert in
Entourage and AppleScript when I started, (about 5 years' worth) so you can
add a bit more for trial and error...

Anything in particular you'd like to know?
