No, you can't grant an application rights that pertain to a user. Perhaps
you might do something with Windows APIs, but

(1) You would, indeed, have a better chance
of getting an answer about _how_ in one
of the Windows newsgroups, and

(2) I doubt your system administrators would
agree to that kind of thing, even if it can
be done.

Maybe if you described what you want to do using Outlook automation, someone
could suggest an alternative.
