Default installation problem with Outlook add-in written in VB6

Hi all,

I have encounter when installing a Outlook add-in to my company user. My
situation is I have written a simple Outlook add-in (say myAddin.dll) in VB6,
and it works fine in my own computer by just registering the Dll using
Regsvr32. However, when I deploy it to my company user using the same way, it
fail to load when Outlook starts.

I think this problem is due to my user is login to our company Active
directory domain, and the policy setting prohibit normal user from installing
any program. However, even I use the RunAs command to run the regsvr32, the
user still cannot get it loaded into the Outlook.

My question is
1. How can I deploy the Add-in to the normal domain user ? Is it need to
manually change the registry HKCU record to include the Add-in entries in the
Outlook key ?

2. If I have 50 users, how can I write some login script to do the above
process ?


Thank in advance


Regards,
ong
