Newbie: Activating Scripting Additions

Hi!

I'm embarrassed that my first post must be something obvious, but an hour of searching the list archives gives me no joy. I've downloaded & installed a couple of scripting additions, yet I can't access their commands from my scripts. Some info: Mac OS X 10.3.7, Akua Sweets 1.4.3, Satimage 2.5.9

I've installed the SAs in /Library/Scripting Additions. I've tried quitting & re-launching Script Editor. I've tried logging out & in. I've tried rebooting. I've tried installing them in ~/Library/Scripting Additions. Smile 2.5.9 recognizes that they are installed (they show up in dictionary submenu for scripting additions). Script Editor shows them when I choose to open their dictionaries.

However, code I write doesn't compile. Even something simple like...

   set versionInquiry to Akua Version

	Error: (A property can't go after this identifier)

...or...

   mutter "Hello, How are you?"

	Error: (A " can't go after this identifier)

...fails. The exact code I'm interested in running is:

tell "Microsoft Entourage"
set nameList to name of every category
set idList to ID of every category
end tell
set bothLists to order list nameList synchronizing idList -- Uses Akua Sweets


	Error: (Expected end of line, etc. but found class name)

Can anyone tell me what I've overlooked?

Thanks,
Brad
