In Outlook 2003 when I want to make my Public Folders available offline, I
use Send/Receive settings, and put a tick in the box of each public folder I
want to make available offline. [Tools - Send/Receive - Send/Receive Settings
- Define Send/Receive Groups - Edit ]

In Outlook 2007, I can tick the boxes, but the ticks are never saved. If I
go back later and look, they are unticked. However all the folders seem to
work offline so Outlook must either remember or just process all offline
folders by default?

Is this standard behaviour for Outlook 2007 or should I be worried? I have
some other issues with strange variations between Public Folders and Offline
Favorites (Favorites work fine, std Public Folders won't create custom items
properly) . Could this be linked?

First go to http://www.slipstick.com/config/backup2007.asp to find the
Outlook file locations in 2007. While Outlook is closed, find the
Outlook.srs file and rename it to OLDOutlook.srs. Reopen Outlook and it will
create a new .srs file, which hopefully will work properly.
