It would help if you'd write using sentences. It's too much work for people
to decode your fragments. However, since you're obviously in a state, and
I've been there, I think I can tell you what may have happened here.

Your next message to the list includes some Entourage scripting.

The *beta* versions of the new Entourage 2008 have a terrible bug such that
- if you run your script from the Entourage script menu, it would strip out
all the source code and leave it as an unopenable run-only script.

I don't know how you came by your beta version of Entourage 2008,
legitimately or otherwise. But if you buy a retail version, or revert to
Entourage 2004, this problem will not happen.

In the meantime, with your current beta version, do NOT run scripts from the
Entourage script menu (meaning no keyboard shortcuts available). Run them
only from a Script Editor, or the system's script menu, which is fine. The
bug is only in beta Entourage's script menu.
