I do IT for the local Victim Support office and have just set up Oulook 2003
(XP Pro SP2) at home to be able to use the VS Mailserver. Works fine, I get
both my personal and my VS mail with no problem. However, I want to be able
to test sharing Calendars and I've found that having both the VS mailserver
and my server working together makes it difficult to test accuratley. What I
want to be able to do (if possible) is to have 2 Outlook Icons with one for
personal use and one for VS. Any idea if this is possible? If so, how to set
up. I've not had to do anything like this for years and am, I'm afraid,
rather rusty. Did not see any thread that would help. Ta very much for any
ideas.
 
make a shortcut and use the profile switch: /profile profilename

or you can set outlook to ask which profile to use when it starts. I use
this method - in part because if it doesn't ask, I know it did not close
properly. Control panel, mail - click Show profiles.

Thank you both for an incredibly speedy response, I have set up the profiles
and am using the /switch and can now start my testing.

Many, many thanks
