Good day Monks. I am working on some Perl based Outlook automation via OLE. Everything is going swimmingly except this security pop-up pops-up everytime I try to run my code, which I have to click away before my script can run.
Rant/digression on MS-stupidity in UI design: The permission clock defaults to one minute, not long enough for a complicated script running the slow Outlook client. To get the max, 10 min (why can't I have an hour so none of this would be an issue?), you have to drop down a list select then click OK. That's 3 clicks. But wait there's more: The Outlook client then comes to the top, so you you have to click once more.
As you can imagine, this get's pretty annoying when one is doing debugging and testing. Does anybody know how I can make Outlook trust the Perl interpreter so it will stop launching this thing? I know it is possible because Google Desktop Search talks to Outlook and doesn't generate the window.

Thx.....

Steve
