PRF file creates backup of profile
BackupProfile does not exist in the .prf that I generated.
This is the General section: ---------- ;Automatically generated PRF file from the Microsoft Office Customization and Installation Wizard ; ************************************************** ************ ; Section 1 - Profile Defaults ; ************************************************** ************ [General] Custom=1 DefaultProfile=Yes OverwriteProfile=Append ModifyDefaultProfileIfPresent=TRUE ---------- "Sue Mosher [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: Modify the [General] section of the PRF file to add/modify the BackupProfile parameter: BackupProfile= No FYI, this is a tip from my forthcoming book, "Configuring Microsoft Outlook 2003," ISBN 1555583261. -- Sue Mosher, Outlook MVP Author of Microsoft Outlook Programming - Jumpstart for Administrators, Power Users, and Developers http://www.outlookcode.com/jumpstart.aspx "Louis" wrote in message ... i try to modify the default profile to the new exchange server.

That's why you have to modify the .prf file.

When I run .prf file, it pops up a notification window to click Yes to
continue and No to not continue. I'm using a script to run the .prf. How can I set the .prf to allow Yes to be "clicked."

You didn't say how your script is running the .prf file. One way to avoid a prompt is to start Outlook with the /importprf "profile path" switch.
