I have TWO profiles, and very often when I start with the non-Default one,
and then close it and restart Outlook 2007, I no longer have a choice to
select which profile to start it with.

This is by design. You will only be prompted for a profile if this is the
first instance (ie there is not another instance of Outlook.exe running.)
and you have prompt for profile selected.

I think the real issue here is what is causing Outlook to not close in a
timely manner. You might want to check to see if you have any other add-in's
that are still running.

Thanks
