This is not an Outlook message. Sounds like an add-in.
What add-ins are you running?

Can't tell I have been using Eudora since 1994 can you LOL

I actually somehow got the mess below sorted out, so convoluted the
way I did it I don't know if I can remember how...let alone explain
it.

I used the incorrect term when I said new "profile" what I meant was
I set up Outlook with correct name, server info, email addy etc.

Here is what I have now though, everything is working fine, with the
exception of this error message every so often.

"The path specified for the file E:\TIA12\Outlook Backup\ OL Temp\
outlook.pst is not valid"

E:\ specifies my external drive where I opend up Outlook.pst file from
(you can get back into the chair now), but this drive is no longer
connected and OL is working just fine. How can i have OL stop looking
for this file?

Thanks, hope I gave you all a good laugh

PS it is Internet Mode only..hence no profiles visible from Control
Panel Mail applet

Wow. This is a textbook example of every wrong way to transfer Outlook
data
there is--all in one post. And you're using IMO mode too, so the usual
repair options are not even available to us.
Are you sure you're using Internet Mail Only mode? It doesn't sound like
it.
You can't create new profiles in IMO.
Clarify your mode, then we'll start trying to undo the damage you've done.
Do you still have your original PST file intact?

The two most certain ways to corrupt an Outlook profile a
a. Overwriting a profile's default PST file.
b. Renaming a profile's default PST then redirecting Outlook to a new PST
on
re-launch.

The only correct way to transfer Outlook data in IMO is:
Internet Mail Only mode:
- File menu Open Personal Folders file migrate to the new PST file
location to open it
- Right-click on the root of the new set of folders in the folder pane
(View
Folder List)
- Choose Properties
- Check the "Deliver POP mail" box
- Quit & restart Outlook
- Now you can Close the PST file that you were previously using (R-click
on
that pst folder while in Folder View and select "Close foldername
Folders"). If you have any information in your former PST that you'd like
to
transfer to your new default PST, you can drag and drop from one to the
other before you close the old one.
