On my Win 2k professional, am using MS Office XP i want to make a common outlook profiles. i mean when user A logs into local machine he gets only his outlook profile. but if i User B wants to check his mails, user A has to logout & User B should login in order to use his profile.

how do i make it common, all the outlook profiles should be available in any login.

The link above probably has the answer to your question but I thought I'd throw in my 2cents. In our network we have 2k pro boxes that have 1 login and are stand alone computers. They have their outlook setup to prompt them for which profile they want to use. At that point username and password is required. Specifically in the properties of Outlook is the place to look.

Now for my 2cents.

Go to Start|Settings|Control Pannel|Mail. Click on Show Profiles and you should see a list of all the available profiles that have been created. You can add, remove, or change properties for profiles. Make sure that you select "Prompt for a profile to be used" so that when you open Outlook, it will prompt you for a profile. Now you will be able to choose any of the available profiles without having to log off and on in windows.
