Strangely enough - given that Entourage is not a package or bundle, and thus
has no CFBundleIdentifier key in any apparent location, but is just a
regular Carbon APPL file - that actually works. Thank you.

So - how is it that its creator code is not registered anywhere (but you get
"OPIM" as the creator code of the application file in the Finder or as file
creator in 'info for' without problem) but "com.microsoft.Entourage" is
registered?

Anyone?
