Write a macro in the VBA code that is available, have it make the config changes
and save to the currently running script.  Then you can either have the users
run it, or you can set it up so that the HP will send escape codes to trigger it
to run, or.......  There are a couple of options.  This can be used in the
future for other updates as well.  Also, the VBA code does not need to live in
the current config.  You can have a separate file that contains the code, and
have each client call the code in the new config file.
