The Links feature in Entourage 2008 is powerful, but it's not too visible. Your shortcut does wonders in boosting productivity! Once again... you've saved me a lot of time! Kudos!

This works in Outlook and iCal to delete multiple items, change mass categories, or copy sets of events to different weeks. Am I missing something? Jeez =T. Also, do you mind informing me what the proper file title should be to hotkey Cmd-Delete? \mDel? no...

Two in a row. Jeff... and Jeff! Calendar events from contacts... That sounds like a good idea. I'll put this on my list for version 5! I've actually had a couple people ask me about copying Category and Project properties from incoming messages. I think I might just write the customization code and then take Steve's suggestion and go open source. By-the-by, for those of you requesting archival solutions, persistence pays. I finally got a chance to sit down last weekend and hammer something out. To be posted... soon. Adam :-) Wow. Two in a row. Jeff… and Jeff!

Yeah! YEAH! YEEEEEAAAAAAGHH!!! WOO-HOO! Finally, a reason to quietly put away Outlook for once and for all!!! Excellent work on this, Adam. The Tasks to Events script absolutely hit the spot. This is really going to save me a great deal of time. If you post a PayPal link for donations, let me know. It's worth paying for. Kudos to you for making my day, my week, my year, Adam. For me, not being able to turn tasks into calendar events was a real sore point, since Outlook allowed me to do it with a simple drag-'n'-drop action - presto. Your solution is ingenious. One minor suggestion: could you possibly create a variant of the "Create Event From Selection" script, where the category from the selected event (say, a task) gets automatically transferred to the new calendar event? That would complete my joy, Adam... :D Entourage tasks to calendar events! Yeah! YEAH! YEEEEEAAAAAAGHH!!! WOO-HOO!

These scripts create an @Tickler folder under "Folders on My Computer", so I wouldn't think this would be a problem?

Just a quick question from me, is there any idea if/when there will be an updated version of this script compatible with Exchange? Many Thanks Hi There Adam,

Great scripts - making things much easier for a lot of people!

Just a quick question from me, is there any idea if/when there will be an updated version of this script compatible with Exchange?

Many Thanks

This is certainly a useful script. Any ideas on how to get it working with IMAP? I saw a link to a comment that indicated you could use an exchange rule to move everything to your INBOX, but it wasn't clear how that would help. Actually, there's another problem for those Cyrus users, apparently you can't create either a sub-folder of INBOX, nor can you give a sub-folder elsewhere a name beginning with '@'. Any suggestions? Cheers, - SteveN G’Day Adam,

I too am looking for a 100% Mac GTD solution, and this comes pretty close. I can see the issues though: you either need a 'one size fits all' approach, or come up with a complicated configuration mechanism. Perhaps the source code is the way to go. It might scare away some folks, but then again someone might pick it up and add a simple/easy config mechanism. I just want to chime in here and put a vote in for the auto-filing feature.
