Hello,

I plan to buy the 2003 edition when it comes out and I'm trying to get a head start on my email
migration from Netscape. I know in the version of Outlook that I have now (2000), I don't use it
because in order for me to set up multiple profiles, I would have to create multiple windows
log-ins, which I won't do. I was wondering if anyone knew whether or not the 2003 version will allow
you to create completely separate profiles under one windows login account and be able to switch
back and forth? I'd like to have the same functionality that the "Identities" feature gives Outlook
Express users in Outlook.

Thanks
Indera
 
Outlook 2003 works like all versions except Outlook 98 and Outlook 2000 in Internet Only Mode -- you can create multiple profiles, each with different accounts.

hi sue,

so does this mean that in outlook 2003, i would still have to log out of outlook to switch profiles. would i still need to create multiple windows log in accounts
to do this?

thanks

Sue,

Is there a way Outlook can be made to show the profile name in the banner in
the fashon of Outlook Express?

George

Each Windows login has its own set of Outlook profiles. You must exit Outlook to switch profiles.

No. You can rename the top group in the Outlook Bar (Shortcuts in Outlook 2003), though.
