Using outlook for sending mail without warning

[Komandur Kannan]

When trying to do an automation with MS Outlook to send an email from a
Visual FoxPro / Visual Basic application, it brings a security warning which
tells user that an application is trying to access Outlook do you want to
proceed. Though I understand the intended security requirement, I need a
seamless integration of my application for mail sending and asking the user
to confirm will not be received well by users due to the quantum of mail sent
out. Primarily because of this reason we have standardized on Eudora despite
having license in every machine for Outlook. IMO, this should be a switch
which cannot be programmatically changed and can be set manually only to
allow disallow automation - Is there a way to suppress this notice?

Hi Peter,

The article talks about using Office Resource Kit to change the security
settings.
In that there is a link given to download the ORK
(http://www.microsoft.com/office/ork). But I cannot find ORK download option
on the given link. We are using a mixed environment of office XP and 2003.
Kindly help in finding out where to download the ORK for XP and 2003.

Thanks.
