The following script is not working. Evidently, I don’t know the proper syntax for assigning a project to an Entourage message. Can someone lend a hand? Thanks.

tell application "Microsoft Entourage"
	
	set theProject to "Strategic Planning"
	set SelectedMessages to current messages
	
	if SelectedMessages is {} then
		display dialog "Please select a message first and then run this script." with icon 1
		return
	end if
	
	repeat with theMessage in SelectedMessages
		set the project of theMessage to theProject
	end repeat
	
end tell

Am I the only one who finds the answer five minutes after I post? Geesh!

I found this at http://www.entourage.mvps.org/faq_topic/project_script.html

property yourproject : "Strategic Planning"

tell application "Microsoft Entourage"
	
	-- get the currently selected message or messages
	set SelectedMessages to current messages
	
	-- if there are no messages selected, warn the user and then quit
	if SelectedMessages is {} then
		display dialog "Please select a message first and then run this script." with icon 1
		return
	end if
	
	repeat with theMessage in SelectedMessages
		-- get the project list from the message, add "YourProject" to it
		set theProject to project list of theMessage
		if {project yourproject} is not in theProject then
			copy project yourproject to end of theProject
			set project list of theMessage to theProject
		end if
	end repeat
end tell
