Running WXP (latest sp as of today), Office 2003 pro, outlook 2003 original.
I installed a new Hd in a pc, reinstalled WXP and Office pro.
I used Acronis to back up outlook files. When i do a recover for outlook, i
get the ugly msg "the file c:\docs and setting\john\local settings\appl
data\microsoft\outlook\outlook.pst could not be found. I did this before i
created a profile in OL, hoping the recover would create the profile for me.
Now when i try to open OL to create a profile, it get the ugly window that
says "MS office outlook has encountered a problems..........".
I've also tried creating a profile thru control panel/mail/email accounts.
Even tried the SCANPST function - no help.

Pls help me!
Phil
NOTHING has worked.

That does not create a profile, that creates an account. You need to
create a profile. Control PanelMailShow ProfilesAdd.
