Hi,
I was having some slowdowns and went to "console" to see what's up. Not sure if this is the cause but there's a constant flow of these:

2/23/09 4:44:18 PM [0x0-0x29029].com.microsoft.Entourage[230] Mon Feb 23 16:44:18 xeons-mac-pro.local Microsoft Entourage[230] <Error>: doClip: empty path.

Getting anywhere from 5-70 of these per minute.
Remedies/workarounds?

Thanks,
John

John this is totally new. When you have a problem, you can generally find a
solution by elimination.

Steps to help determine where the problem is located.

1) you can eliminate your Identity by creating a new Identity in Entourage
and see if you experience the same problem.

2) if a new Identity still exhibits the same issues, then create a new User
in System Preferences and test Entourage there.

3) If the problems still exist in the new User, it's a problem with your
Office install or your base OS files. If running the Apple combo does not
fix, then you might need to do an "Archive & Install". Generally it is not
your Office install.
