Task to Entourage Event
 

Here is a script (based on [email]sandro@sandro.org[/email]'s script for creating an entourage mail message) that makes a new Entourage calendar event from an Omnifocus task.

Event subject = task subject
Event Notes = task notes
Event Date = task due date

[CODE]tell application "OmniFocus"

tell front document
tell document window 1
set theSelectedItems to selected trees of content
if ((count of theSelectedItems) < 1) then
display alert "You must first select a single task." message "Select a single task before running this script." as warning
return
end if
if ((count of theSelectedItems) > 1) then
display alert "You must select only one task." message "Select a single task before running this script." as warning
return
end if


end tell
end tell

set theDoc to document window 1 of document 1

-- set theSelectedTask to the «class OTva» of item 1 of selected tree of the content of theDoc
set theSelectedTask to value of item 1 of theSelectedItems

set eventSubject to name of theSelectedTask
set eventContent to note of theSelectedTask
set eventDate to due date of theSelectedTask

if (eventSubject = "missing value") then
set eventSubject to ""
end if

end tell

tell application "Microsoft Entourage"
activate
set newCal to make new event at draft window with properties {subject:eventSubject, content:eventContent, all day event:false, start time:eventDate}
open newCal
end tell[/CODE]

Your script sounds very useful the way I use OF. But I just switched from using Entourage to iCal! Is there any script that you know of which can take an OF task and make an iCal event (not a todo!). If not, anyone willing to take on the challenge... at least it would be a challenge to me!

Thanks,
Eric

Eric, I think there are a couple different scripts in the "OmniFocus Extras" forum that may work for you. Here's a good starting point:
