Actually, I have good experience with using .prf files and office resource kit in general, so that is an excellent idea :) should have thought of it myself :p<br />

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
When I am at work, there is a company policy saying that we can only use a specific smtp server (yoda.akershus-fk.no). This smtp server however, can only be used at work.<br />
At home I am using another smtp server, the one my DSL provider is providing me.<br />
This smtp server also have a different port.<br />
<br />
Changing between these settings everytime I need to check my mail at work or outside work, is not very practical, and this is the same for everyone who works here.<br />
<br />
So what I need to make, is two simple macro buttons, one that sets the company smtp server and port 25, and one that sets whatever settings the person needs to use outside of work.<br />
<br />
I can not find any option to &quot;record a macro&quot; in outlook, like theres is in Excel etc, so i figure I have to use visual basic? But I have no idea how to manipulate outlook settings from VB, I have only been using it in access. Anyone with insight in this?

Visual Basic is Microsoft’s event-driven programming language and integrated development environment (IDE) for its Component Object Model (COM) programming model. It is relatively easy to learn and use because of its graphical development features and BASIC heritage. It has been replaced with VB.NET, and is very similar to VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), the programming language for the Microsoft Office product line.
