I somehow have like 3 or 4 copies of my OUTLOOK TODAY (Personal
Folder) showing up when I open up the FOLDER LIST. They are all the
same PST file. How can I get rid of all the extra listings & just show
1 of them.

THANKS

The easy way to do this would be to just create a new profile (Start |
Settings | Control Panel | Mail | Show Profiles | New).

Otherwise, you can try this:
Select Start | Run

Enter Regedit and select OK

Check

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Windows
Messaging Subsystem\Profiles\profilename\ (Software\Microsoft\WindowsNT if
Windows NT or 2000)

The subkeys are hexidecimal numbers. Find the one(s) that reference the PST
file in question and select it. Export that key (from the Registry menu) to
a .REG file for backup purposes, then delete it.

If you seem to have multiple keys pointing to the same PST, try opening
Outlook after you delete the first one. If you find you deleted a "good" PST
entry, import the key from the REG file to which you exported it, then try
the next one.
 
What are the registry keys for XP? I can't find the ones
you are referencing.
