I'm having difficulty calling Outlook from VBScript. It errors saying
ActiveX cannot call the object. Here is a snippet:

    set ol = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
    Set olns = ol.GetNameSpace("MAPI")
    Set myfolder = olns.GetDefaultFolder(13)
    Set myItem = myFolder.Items.Add("IPM.Task.Munitions Task")
    MyItem.Display

Anyone know why it won't recognize Outlook.Application?

If anyone is having this same problem, I found the answer. Take a look at
this article. Basically, I had to make the form fully trusted and digitally
sign it before it would allow the script to access local resources.
