Compact .pst file with a script?

Hi there. I work in a small company, which currently has all the .pst files stored on the local computers. These files are backed up each night to our server, but I noticed that after deleting numerous emails, the size of the .pst file doesn't shrink unless I run the compact utility. Is is possible to perform this action through a script or batch file that I could run on logoff? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

P.S. We are running XP Pro on all the computers.

I also would be grateful to anyone who can post a solution to this problem. At this point, I would accept a scripting, vba or third-party plugin/application solution!

Thanks!
Andrew
