Outlook advice/direction deploying appz

P

Trying to send a Setup file to a bunch of employees
(~300). I have made 2 custom forms in Outlook. When a
user runs the setup file...it should automatically write a
new Personal Folder in outlook folder tree, add the 2
custom forms to open when user double clicks on them. I
am just trying to save the hastle of everyone doing this
manually. Is there a book or something that will help me
deploy such a solution?...I don't want to use a COM add-
in...I prefer a complete setup up application. I am using
VB6 and OL2k. Thanks.

Easiest way to do this might be to create the PST file and publish the two Outlook forms to it. You can then distribute it to everyone along with a small .exe that uses the Namespace.AddStore method to add it to the current profile.
