 Automating the Setup Process

Hi,
  Does anyone know how to automate the setup process of outlook, or which
objects if any I can use to accomplish this?  Currently to setup a new user
it's a very manual process, I should be able to automate it.  So far I've
done the following.  From this point how do I select a particular service?

'***************************************************
' File: OpenControlPanel.vbs
' Author: Andre Paris
'
' Open the control panel test - a start
'***************************************************
Option Explicit

Dim WshObj ' Object for the Run method

Set WshObj = WScript.CreateObject("Wscript.Shell")


'****End

You can't use WSH to create a profile.  This would have to be done using
C/C++ (or Delphi) and Extended MAPI.  An alternative to this would be some
of the profile maker tools listed at

Try Scriptit to send keys.  Download it from Microsoft - it is free.  The
documentation that comes with it is pretty good.  In effect you send keys to the
open windows by means of a macro.  You can create your own sendkeys program in VB.
e.g using it on an NT4.0 Workstation

[script]
run=control.exe
control Panel={TAB}
control Panel={down 11}
control Panel={Enter}

This will bring up the mail properties(your control panel may be different to
mine because I have other company specific programs in here)

Then note the window name and tabe away to where you want to go.

Script
