I wil try what you suggested to see if I get better results. I assume that the coordinates have to do with the send("{tab 2}") line of code.

I am trying to get by without having to put out for a new edition of Outlook if possible. I have to agree with you that the compatibility issues suck!

Let me ammend that last statement, it was late and I was tired. After running this script Autoit fills out the username box not the password box that it was supposed to fill out. Does anyone have any clue as to where I went wrong, and how can I correct it?

Here is the code that both my brother and I came up with after doing some searching on the net and our own work. ;Start OutLook Run("C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office10\OUTLOOK.EXE") ; check library path of your OutLook ;Wait for Password window WinWaitActive("Enter Network Password") ;Insert Password Change "xxxxx" by your password Send("293569713") ;Activate and send Enter key WinActivate("Enter Network Password") send("{tab 2}") send("{enter}") ;Finished I get Outlook to open and begin but when the password window is filled in it is the user name not the password that Autoit is filling in. Where did we go wrong???

I have been pulling what little hair I have left out. I am trying to write a script to fill in the password to MS Outlook 2002. I recently bought a new machine that came loaded with Vista. Well low and behold Vista and Outlook '02 don't get along. So I am asking for anyone's help with this. As I said, I have been trying on my own to no avail. Any and all help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you, cm35

Thank you for the knowledge that XP and Vista, registy wise, are essentially the same animal. I have allready been to regedit to back up my registry settings. But as you stated editing the registry can be quite an ugly thing if not done exactly correct.

Thanks for that info. I am going straight to the help file.

I gave that link a try, but there was no information about editing a Vista registry. Needless to say I was a bit hesitant to try doing an edit for an earlier version of Widows.

I have been using Widows XP for years now, and have just made the change to Vista. I don't care for windows mail and tried to setup Outlook 2002. I entered all the information and received mail. The next time I opened Outlook my I was told that I had to enter my password once again. I checked the account info and sure enough the password was gone. Even though I checked the save password box. Is there any way to circumvent this? I was told to pick up a copy of Autoit and that should do it for me. I searched the FAQs to no avail. Not being very, if at all, savy with scripts is there someone out there who could assist me? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, CM35
