[mso] Re: universal use of Outlook

I had hoped that  there was a way of making an Outlook configuration available 
to  all users as I did with other programs. For example the art teachers 
needed Photoshop configured in a particular way so it was done and the "ini" 
file was put in the "default user" and "all user" folders in Windows. I had 
hoped for a similar idea for Outlook. But I am getting OT, I guess.

Thanks Linda & David.You've given me some pointers. I'll try them out after 
the weekend and report.
