Initials: $$first_initial$$last_initial

The above example leverages the KiXtart macro @fullname and the User Defined Aliases module. When Script Start executes, the @fullname macro is expanded into the user's full name. The $$first_initial and $$last_initial are User Defined Aliases that expand into the user's first initial and last initial respectively. Therefore, the Office User Name field will be set to the user's full name and the Office Initials field will be set to the user's first initial and last initial. Collect Without Showing Office Clipboard and Show Status Near Taskbar When Copying will be enabled. All other available options will be disabled.
