The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Outlook Windows 95 client, version 8.03
  • Microsoft Outlook Windows NT client, version 8.03

SUMMARY

The Server Scripting extension is installed by default with Microsoft Outlook version 8.03. This extension allows a Microsoft Outlook user to manage scripts that are used on a Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5 computer. This extension is normally listed in the Add-ins dialog box when installed properly. In some cases, the extension and its functionality may not be available and it must be reinstalled.

MORE INFORMATION

If you remove the extension via the Add-in Manager, it cannot be reinstalled again from the Add-in Manager. To reinstall the extension, you must perform the following steps:

  1. Run the Microsoft Outlook Setup program.

  2. Choose the Add/Remove option.

  3. Under Microsoft Exchange Server Support, disable the Exchange Scripting Agent option.

  4. Repeat the steps above to enable the Exchange Scripting Agent option. This will reinstall any missing or corrupt files or Registry settings.

The Server Scripting extension should now be visible in the Add-in Manager.
