VBA Code for Outlook Package

We are trying to package a VB code that plugs into Outlook 2003. I capture it with Prism Pack but cannot seem to get it to work on the test machines.

Anyone ever do anything like this?

Hi Andrew,
where does the VBS file have to go?
Are there other tasks beside file copy?

The file ends up in the user profile\application data\microsoft\outlook.

The file gets there but the vb code does not seem to work unless I go into the VB editor, simply open the editor and clsoe it. After that the code starts working.

Hi Andrew,
that makes two main problems.
First, you have to deploy the VBS-file to each user. To get the necessary knowledge, read this one: http://itninja.com/question/distribution-message21

Second, you need to register this file somehow with Outlook. Maybe, that's done in the registry. Try to capture the process of open the file with the editor. If you are not getting any result, try using ARM (http://www.protect-me.com/arm/) or Regmon. Maybe, you have to read up some more documentation.

Good luck,
Nick
