Hi all,

I'm currently having one of my first work related problems, so im turning, here for help. The problem is, each time a user on my work's network logs into outlook for the first time, they have to go through the setup, and of course they end up calling the IT for help. So, he's requested I find a script which will fill out the setup forms automatically. Any ideas if such a script exists?

Put out a webpage with instructions of what to put in for each form field? You guys have any kind of intranet?

Maybe get up off that butt and go setup the Outlook installs manually?

IT people are still issued legs?, or did I miss a meeting?


Seriously, there's no avoiding it sometimes, I'd consider doing it myself long before trying to get a script to do it for me. You simply cannot rely on normal PC users to do anything too complex, regardless of how smart they should be or how much they use a PC - most of the people I work with have degree's and years of PC experience, yet I wouldn't trust most of them to reboot an etch-a-sketch.

We're going down... in a spiral to the ground...
