Hi Sue,

Thank you for the response..

At last all research planned to go for Vbs script and will execute the
script after the installation .
For that started writing a Vbs script that will use redemption ,but got
stuck in setting the field values for the Calendar folder
Its throwing following error Objects Required:’[string: “IPM.Appointment”]’

Please see the following code for reference

Dim objApp
Const PR_DEF_POST_MSGCLASS = &H36E5001E
Const PR_DEF_POST_DISPLAYNAME = &H36E6001E
Set objApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Dim Inbox
set Session = CreateObject("emhelper.mRDOSession")
Session.Logon
set olFldr =Session.GetDefaultFolder(9)
Set fld1 = olFldr.Fields(PR_DEF_POST_MSGCLASS)
fld1.Value ="IPM.Appointment.WsmOutlook2003 Form"
set k =fld1.Value
fld1.Value="IPM.Appointment.WsmOutlook2003 Form"

It looks like some conversion issue. Kindly Let me know your views and
suggestions


Thanks
Aditi

Which statement raises the error? Keep in mind that we have no way of
knowing what your emhelper.mRDOSession does.
