Default Script to add Outlook Address Book to existing profile

Yes, it's possible, and a .prf file is the only "script" method that Outlook supports natively. You must have configured it to create a new profile, not append. The only settings you add to the PRF should be those to add the OAB. Post the first five sections of your PRF and we'll try to help you fix it.

Hey all,

I've seen this mentioned a few times, but I've not been able to find a
way yet. Is there anyway to write a script for a user to run that will
automatically add their Outlook Address Book to their profile?

I've tried using a .PRF, but it seems to overwrite the existing
settings totally. If this is the best way, is it possible to configure
a .PRF just to set the Outlook Address Book and nothing else?

Thanks!

Rich
