How to get a Dial-up Connection dialog box?
I just got Outlook 2003 with new laptop which I carry back and forth to
work. I use the same ISP at both locations, but with different dial-up phone numbers. When I launch Internet Explorer, I get a "Dial-up Connection" dialog box that lets me select which phone number to use. I want to get that same dialog box if I'm not already online and I launch Outlook 2003, but I can't figure out a way to get Outlook to give it to me. I had Outlook Express on my old laptop, and it gave me the same dialog box as IE. Is that function no longer available? -- Friday714 |

Set that up in Windows, Internet Options, Connections, not Outlook.

How to get a Dial-up Connection dialog box?
Forgot to mention--in your mail acct setup, under More Settings, Connections
tab has more acct connections choices. You might need to set up Dial whenever...etc. "Mary" wrote: Set that up in Windows, Internet Options, Connections, not Outlook.

I find it helpful to configure Outlook to always use the LAN setting (ToolsE-mail AccountsNext. Select your account, click Change, then More Settings, and click the Connection tab) or to choose "Connect using Internet Explorer's or a 3rd party dialer". -- Brian Tillman |
