I have Vista nad I'm attempting to use Outlook Help to configure individual
profiles that I can switch from one to the other. Problem is, when I go to
Control Panel, Users, I don't have 'Mail' option! I have one profile in
Outlook configured ... I configured it right in Outlook. I want the ability
to have multiple profiles but don't know how I'm going to do that if I can't
find Mail Setup.
Your help will be appreciated.

Do you have an Outlook icon on your desktop? If so, right-click |
Properties should give you the same Outlook setup panel.

Control Panel, Users is NOT where the Mail icon is located. It's just in
Control Panel.

Once you are in the Control Panel, on the left hand side pane, there should
be "Switch to classic View" click this and you will then see the Mail Icon

Of course you are correct - I don't use the Categories view of Control panel
and rather assumed the OP wasn't either...

That's the problem, it's not in either place!!!
Also, I right clicked on Outlook's icon and went to that Properties but it
doesn't look the same or do the same thing that the Help file is showing me.
I don't have a Mail icon! I have a new PC/Vista ... everything is up to
date as far as Window's Updates go.

Hmm. Might be a silly question, you have DEFINITELY installed Outlook?

Yes, Microsoft Office 2007 is installed. Outlook as well. I phoned Dell
hoping for resolution and was told the problem is because the PC is 64-bit
and Outlook 'probably' only supports 32-bit! Do you buy that?

Ah. In that case - I think that in 64bit versions of Windows there's a "View
32bits" section in Control Panel?

Pretty enlightening Gordon! Now why couldn't Dell's special "Tech Team"
support answer that! I found 'Additional Options' in Control Panel, and now
I see the "Mail" icon. I can't thank you enough.
Best regards,
LinK
