There's a handy 'assign category' shortcut. Is there one for 'assign
porject'?
Nope. But you can do it with a script...
This URL should load the script into script editor:
http://tinyurl.com/6ylqd
If it doesn¹t, copy it from here and paste it in manually:
tell application "Microsoft Entourage"
set theMessages to current messages
if theMessages is {} then return
set theProjects to name of every project
set chosenProjects to choose from list theProjects with prompt "Select
the Projects to be assigned to these messages:" OK button name "Assign" with
multiple selections allowed without empty selection allowed
set projectList to {}
repeat with thisProject in chosenProjects
copy (first project whose name is thisProject) to end of projectList
end repeat
repeat with amessage in theMessages
set project list of amessage to projectList
end repeat
end tell
Save the script as a compiled script & put it in the ŒEntourage Script Menu
Items¹ folder in your ŒMicrosoft User Data¹ folder. Assign a keyboard
shortcut as described in the Help files. The script can be manually run from
the menu or by the keyboard shortcut.
