Diane, I am fairly new to Mac and have never used Automator. I got the following script from your link; tell application "Microsoft Entourage" to quit tell application "Microsoft Database Daemon" to quit tell application "Microsoft Office Reminders" to quit tell application "My Day" to quit tell application "Microsoft Word" to quit tell application "Microsoft Excel" to quit tell application "Microsoft PowerPoint" to quit tell application "Microsoft Messenger" to quit
But I don¹t know how to get it into Automator. I have clicked Workflow on the initial screen but don¹t see where to paste the script. Can you please assist me?
