profile confusion..

[Guest]

Hello,
Can anyone advise me on how to copy profile settings, data, etc. from one XP Pro profile to another(same pc). Profile #1 is a roaming, domain level profile in which I have my email data, etc. I'd like to eliminate this profile as I'm no longer roaming / on domain. Profile #2 is a workstation level profile which is the primary profile I would like to use. Problem is, when i'm in #2, I can't see any of my emails that are contained in outlook in profile #1 and all the settings are different. Is there a way to transfer / copy the settings from #1 to #2?
Sorry if this is a basic question - am new to XP and would appreciate any assistance from the group.
Thanks very much.

Copy a User Profile:

Open System in Control Panel. On the User Profiles tab, and under Profiles stored on this computer, click the user profile you want to copy, and then click Copy To.

In the Copy To dialog box, under Copy profile to, type the location for the new profile, or click Browse to select the path.
Click Change to open the Choose User dialog box, click a new user from the Names list, and then click Add. The new user name will appear in Add Name. Click OK to add the user as a new user profile on your computer.

Note: You must be logged on as an administrator to the local computer to copy user profiles. To open a Control Panel item, click Start, point to Settings, click Control Panel, and then double-click the appropriate icon.
