It's may be _something_ like that. But GUI scripting does not see the swatch as any sort of character, as I half-expected it might. Using UI Browser, it's clear it sees only the name, which works, as you can see, in the script. Keyboard Shortcut prefs may work differently, which would not greatly surprise me... -- Paul Berkowitz MVP Entourage Entourage FAQ Page: <http://www.entourage.mvps.org/faq/index.html> AppleScripts for Entourage: <http://macscripter.net/scriptbuilders/> PLEASE always state which version of Entourage you are using - **2004**, X or 2001.
