After reading the link, may I do this:
Re-name the the laptop's current *.pst to old.pst
Back-up the desktop to the laptop
Re-start OL in the laptop (should point to the back-up) ??


That's not a good idea. Renaming a PST that is currently part of a mail
profile is a good way to corrupt the profle. Instead use Control Panel's
Mail applet to change the profile to point to the PST you want priot to
starting Outlook.
