fwiw, there appears to be a problem with the applescript implementation of Excel that creates problems for appscript users...

Yes, it is.

Word, Excel and PPT all have similar capabilities to previous version, but
the applescript support for Outlook is completely new and very different
to Entourage support. It is also fairly buggy in the first version of the
product, but an update that concentrates on applescript improvement has
been promised for the near future.

Most scripts written for Entourage will need some rewriting to work with
Outlook, but not too much. There are just a few things that don¹t seem
possible at the moment (like getting the plain text content of a message)
but hopefully the next update wll fix most of these.
