I'm wanting to create multiple identities in Outlook but every time I search it only talks about Outlook Express.
Please help. Thanks

Is there a way to create multiple identities in Outlook? Every search
result I have read talks about only doing so in Outlook Express.

Any input is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Outlook does not use identities - it uses Profiles. To create a new Profile
do Control panel-Mail-Show Profiles-Add. Be aware that you cannot switch
Profiles in Outlook like you can identities in OE.

Outlook, there is some box that pops up asking you to choose which profile

Yes, but only if you check the box to get Outlook to ask when you create the
