Default "Work Offline" Menu and "Exit" Menu

I Posted this in another location but did not get any feedback, maybe I put
it in the wrong location, hopefully this is the correct location....

Any help would be great...

With Outlook 2003, on the File Menu we have the "Work Offline" menu right
above the "EXIT" menu. We all know how users are and sometime my users think
they are seleting EXIT when indeed they selected "WORK OFFLINE" the next
time they Open Outlook they think our Mail Server is Down, which it isn't
just that they have "Work Offline" selected.

I want to be able to do One of 2 things:

1. Remove the "Work Ofline" all together or

2. Move the "Work Offline" up a couple of places on the Menu Bar so it is
not right next to the "EXIT" selection.

Thank you in advance...

Michael

1) You can remove any menu command with a group policy object. If you don't
want to write your own code to recurse the Explorer.CommandBars and
Inspector.CommandBars collections, you can use either the CommandBars
Browser or Outlook Spy tools listed at
http://www.slipstick.com/dev/vb.htm#tools

2) This can also be done, but it would take a script or a COM add-in.
