Hello, guys. I want to write an outlook configuration tool, which
would set various settings of outlook: check or uncheck its
checkboxes, configure accounts and so on. The tool is supposed to be
written in delphi. Are there any possibilities to access the
corresponding settings of outlook and to change them from the outside?

Click to expand...

The programmers like to hang out in microsoft.public.outlook.program_vba
 
Why not use the Office Customization Tool available free from Microsoft?

Hello:) The problem is that I do not want to program that tool in VBA.
I want an external tool, not an Outlook embedded one.

Hmm, I need a tool, which pops up a window, there you can click on
"configure" and Outlook will be configured. Optionally you can enter
account data or default values will be used. The goal is to simplify
the configuration of Outlook - to make it transparent for the user.
And using the Office Customization Tool does not achieves the goal. I
mean, you could simply start Outlook and configure everything manually
just as well:)
