Outlook security

[Ted Byers]

I am investigating developing a little application that syncronizes the
contact data in Outlook with that in other applications. But there is one
fly in the ointment in that, with the products I have seen, Outlook detects
that another application is wanting to read and edit it's data. While
generally a good thing, I am looking for a way to suppress the related
dialog box, so that the user does not have to be bothered with it for each
attempt to syncronize the data. Surely there must be a way for the user, or
better the network administrator, to tell Outlook, when an application is
first installed, that the application in question is trusted and permitted
to modify the Outlook data as necessary. But alas, those I have consulted
with have not yet found a way to do this.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Ted

If you are working in an Exchange/Outlook environment, See
http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/esecup/admin.htm for information on tools
which your Exchange administrator can apply.

If you do not have Exchange, I use and heartily recommend a free product
called Express ClickYes.
http://www.express-soft.com/mailmate/clickyes.html. There is code provided
at their web site which allows you to turn it on and off in code.

For additional information and other product options, see:
