Concerning transferring Outlook accounts. I am currently re-imaging several
shared workstations and hoping to transfer users Outlook profiles from the
old pc’s to the new ones (rather than having to recreate 20+ profiles
manually).

I have already tried transferring the old C:\Documents and
Settings\XXXXXX\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook folder to the new
workstations without success. Does anyone know if what I am attempting is
even possible? My guess is it’s going to take more than simply copying a
folder over to get these profiles transferred (if it can even be done).

Hi wagallo,
the profiles are not in this folder you have copied.
the profiles are stored in the registry
Profiles
HKEY_Current_Uswer\Software\Microsoft\Windows\ NT\CurrentVersion\Windows
Messaging Subsystem\Profiles!
