Multiple Outlook Sessions With Unique PST's

[James Martin]

Hi there,

I want to set up two different Outlook PST's and have two Outlook icons -
one that will open Outlook with the first PST and one that will open Outlook
with the second PST. I don't need to run them simultaneously. I just want to
be able to have the two instances of Outlook be totally separate from each
other.

Is there a way to do this?

Thanks in advance.

Seperate Profiles?
Use the mail applet in the control panel to create a new profile, prompt for
profile, and add or create a new pst

Thanks, that works great.

Just one more question. Is there a way now to create two Outlook shortcuts -
one that automatically launches with one profile and one that automatically
launches with the other profile. From Control Panel I can set it to always
default to one profile, or allow me to select a profile every time I launch
Outlook. But I was hoping to have a way to have each icon automatically
select a different profile.

Thanks again.

OL launches, and provided you selected Prompt for Profile, you will be asked
to select a profile before OL completes its launch.
If you have two shorcuts there is allways the risk that you may have
forgotten to exit OL in one prior to attempting to launch the other, which
may lead to all sorts of problems
