Microsoft uses text files with a .prf extension and a highly structured format to provide information to OUtlook that enables Outlook to create or modify a mail profile. You can create such .prf files with the Custom Installation Wizard or Custom Maintenance Wizard tools in the Office Resource Kit. For more details, including a variety of .prf deployment methods, read the excellent white paper "Configuring Outlook Profiles by Using a PRF File" at http://office.microsoft.com/search/r...60 I&respos=3

The page at http://www.slipstick.com/exs/olroam.htm includes information on other profile tools and resources.

We just upgraded about 1500 systems to Outlook 2003. The users have been
using an Exchange web based system. I now need to create user profiles for
all the users to connect via Outlook 2003. They already have accounts on the
exchange server. Is there a script or way to automate this? I don't relish
the idea of having to log on to 1500 systems to do the configuration
manually. The systems use Windows XP SP2.
