Many thanks for this advice, as I was not aware that Entourage X had
this extra scriptable feature, but do you know of any way I can get
FileMaker Pro to create the reminder in Entourage? This will be used
by someone at work who will for the foreseeable future be using OS9.2.
Many thanks

and dates?
You can create a new event or task in Entourage, including the reminder
(which works differently for event - where it's minutes before start time -
and task - where it's a date. If you've got Entourage 2001, you'll have to
make a task since 'remind time' of event wasn't scriptable there, but
'reminder date and time' of task was. In Entourage X, they're both
scriptable. You can even create an event or task with no content except the
reminder, but a subject (title) would be useful. You can make the start time
of event the same as the reminder time by making the reminder time 0. In
fact, if ever you want to create an event _without_ a reminder, you have to
omit the 'remind time' property since otherwise a remind time of 0 does
bring up a reminder as the event's start time arrives.
