Work offline?

[Guest]

When I first go into Outlook, I'm asked whether I want to work on or
off-line. How can I stop that question from coming up each time? I always
want to work on-line, but I still want the option of working off-line if I
have to.

Microsoft Office XP Small Business? Does that help? Don't know if it's 2003?

Click Tools/E-mail Accounts
Click "View or change existing email accounts" and click "Next"
Click "Change" Then click "More Settings"
On default connection state, click "Connect with network"
Click "Ok", then "Next" then "Finish"

I forgot to include a step:

Click Tools/E-mail Accounts
Click "View or change existing email accounts" and click "Next"
Click "Change" Then click "More Settings"
On default connection state, uncheck "Choose the connection type when
starting" then click "Connect with network" To be able to work offline
again, you simply recheck the "Choose the connection type when starting"
then click "Work offline and use dial up networking"
Click "Ok", then "Next" then "Finish"
