creating outlook 97/98 profile thru VB?

[mvol01]

How can I create a new Outlook 97/98 profile via VB. These computers have Outlook installed, may or may not have a profile already. I need to create a new profile. I will have the username, full name etc... I need it to be generic in the creation process. Thanks for any help

I've been looking into this.
probably the best way to do this is to use the tools provided by microsoft.
there is a program called newprof.exe and it gets input from .prf files which are basically ini files.
You can use vb to write to these files as needed, and use newprof.exe to generate the profile before opening your code.
check out Microsoft's Technet

Hope this helps
