Scripting Automation and MS Office

Here's one that can trip you up.

If you create a specific Windows user account for running aaa-reports! automation (most people do) and you have retail MS Office installed on the same PC.... you'll need to login as this user and start an Office app (eg Word) at least ONCE. When you do this Office will spot its a new user and prompt you to confirm your name an initials.

Now, when aaa-reports! automation kicks in Office will not throw a spanner in the works by asking for user details.

Otherwise an unattended session is left waiting for user input and you'll think aaa-reports! is broken. Thank you Microsoft!
