Outlook 2k3 and user's PST file / Address book

[Brat-2]

Hi All,

Up till now I did customize Office 2003 installation using MST created by Office 2003 Resource Kit Tools.

I specified, that Outlook should use the existing user profile (On of the last customization screens of the ORK tools). I already have my own D:\Mail\Outlook\Outlook.pst, which I want to use.

But, when I am loading Outlook after unattended XP/Office 2003 installation it creates D:\Mail\Outlook\Outlook1.pst

So, I have to exit from Outlook, delete Outlook1.pst, load Outlook again, specify D:\Mail\Outlook\Outlook.pst as a "missing" personal profile.

exit from Outlook, load it again... Voil'a - I am able to see e-mails, contacts, etc.

Question: how you can force Outlook to USE my PST file?

Thanks.

Once you get Outlook running the way you want, run the Office Save My Settings wizard, and import those settings into your MST file. You are prompted for this while making the MST (Can't remember which step at the moment).

Hey, it works for me...
