My laptop users connect to Exchange Server5.5/NT4 when on the LAN, but access mail through the POP3 connector when in the field. For this I have set up two profiles. I’d love to be able to have Outlook 2000 select the correct profile according to the MS Windows Hardware Profile in effect (Docked or Undocked). I know that there’s an application startup event that can be used to set up a VBA macro in Outlook but I don’t have any clue as to how to get the hardwawre profile or use it to choose an Outlook profile.
I’ve been told by consultants that they’ve seen “something like this” but that’s all I’ve found so far. If anyone has any input — or if I’m missing something very obvious — I’d love to hear your views!
(Outlook 2000, NT4 SP4 server with EX5.5 SP3, Windows 98 & 2000 client laptops).
