It can't be done with AppleScript. The calendar as such (as opposed to
calendar events) is not scriptable, nor is "Open as Web page" nor are
setting to and from dates. You could do the very first step by menu
emulation, but a sequence of such emulations never works in an application
like Entourage (or many apps) because the AppleScript commands move on
before the first emulation has taken effect, and because it is designed not
to respond to menu selection or keypressing while a script is running. The
latter problem could be averted by running an applet in the background
(rather than a compiled script from within Entourage) but not the first
problem.
What could do it would be a macro utility such as OneClick.
