if there is no properties on that dialog then something more is wrong. You
can get to the profile through control panel, mail applet and you can force
outlook closed by going to task manager, processes tab and ending the
outlook.exe task.

Delete the existing profile and make a new one, using the correct acct type.

Diane,
First, if I could "close" Outlook, I'd be ahead. I can't open it at all.
I
tried your sequence. There is no "profile" on properties to delete.

Office Small Business 2007 came installed on my new computer.
When I try to use Outlook, it starts to configure, and then I get a
message
that "Connection to Microsoft Exchange is unavailable. Outlook must be
online or..." It then takes me to a menu "Microsoft Exchange" with a
General
tab asking for Name of Server and then Mailbox Name.
I have no idea what to enter. So I'm stuck.
Furthermore, it's important that I synch with my BlackBerry but it has
to
be
done through Outlook, and that's impossible this way.
PLEASE HELP!
