Accessing addressbook in a secure way/disable protection temporarely

[Manfred Braun]

Hi All,

I use a script [VBS] for diagostics reason which enums all users [via
addressbook] from my exchange server [V5.5] and determines their mailbox
size. Unexpectedly - after I upgraded to Outlook 2003 so I assume - the
access to the addressbook is protected. For each user I get a message saying
"a program is trying to access the addressbook, do you allow this". So I
have to click yes several thousends times.

Is there any way to disable the protection completely and how???? Any help
would be great!

Thanks so far and best regards,
Manfred Braun

Hello Sue,

thanks a lot for the very fast answer. I am administrator and not able to
write COM AddIns for this, I'll try the sendkeys approach ;-) this is
enough for my script, but disables me to run it "offline".

Much thanks and
best regards,
Manfred Braun
