I'm still not understanding the problem or the proposed solution. There is
no "as" parameter to "set the clipboard", and "some stuff" *is* text. Nor am
I able to see the circumstances under which Entourage's clipboard fails to
get set. This works for me:
tell application "Microsoft Entourage"
activate
set the clipboard to "some stuff"
end tell
I can then paste "some stuff" into Entourage. So I'm just not getting what
just happened in this thread. m.
