for sections.

Watch for line wraps; you'll want to put your code between a While/Wend
loop.
Dim fso, ts
Const ForReading = 1
Set fso = CreateObject(Scripting. FileSystemObject)

While NOT ts.AtEndOfStream
strComputer = ts.ReadLine()

Yes, but you will also need to grant Reviewer rights on your mailbox to
the user, and they will have to open it as a secondary mailbox or create
a shortcut to it instead of File-Open other user's folder-(Calendar
from drop-down list)

...or ADAM. These kinds of requests have a tendency to creep beyond the
original scope, which can have unintended consequences if the upfront
planning falls short.
