Default switching between profiles with same pst file

OL 2002 XP3
Win XP HE

*follow-up to: microsoft.public.outlook*

hi,

i have created a new profile which uses the same pst file as my
old/original one.

i want to switch back to the old/original one but am concerned that if
i only just switch without removing or "disconnecting" the pst file
from the newer profile, the rules will break, etc.

any advice?

tx.

1) it took a while to get an answer on that 1 question and thought the
thread had been dropped. posted this one before receiving ur reply.

2) i am trying to get feedback from more than 1 person

3) i believe the ms newsgroups are top posting

Fair enough, but it's not unreasonable to wait 24-36 hours for an answer
before posting again.

3) i believe the ms newsgroups are top posting


What makes you say that? I doubt there are rules governing how you wish to
post. I prefer bottom posting or interspersing my comments as I have in
this post. It preserves context a heck of a lot better than top posting.

Brian,
i completely agree with you on bottom posting. it just makes more
sense.
not that it's important to me at all, but i remember reading somewhere
that the MS newsgroups are indeed top posting. or maybe i just got
told in these newsgroups, can't remember.....
the other issue, i just have serious problems with OL right now which
is affecting my work, thus the "time if of the essence " thing.
tx. in any event.
