Entity Axel Luttgens spoke thus:

That is a good idea and it quits the Daemon but only as an "Application".
Entourage's Script Menu doesn't show Applications,
only Compiled Scripts! (More Office X aggravations)

So, back to the Shell, which (I hope) will run as a compiled script:
do shell script ,
("kill -9 " & "/bin/ps -auwx | grep -v /usr/bin/awk | /usr/bin/awk
'/Microsoft Database Daemon/ {print $2;}'")

This seems to run but according to Process Viewer it doesn't quit the
Daemon.
Is that line OK? I don't understand this shell scripting!

Hope that makes sense . . .
