View Full Version : Outlook2000 "ini" file

this is not really a VBA question, but ...

In versions of Outlook prior to Outlook2000, there was an .INI file that one could modify to change where Outlook looked for files, e.g., .pab, .pst, etc. I have not been able to find something equivalent for Outloook200 and, thus, am forced through the waste-of-time process of browsing to the correct location every time I want to add or rearrange attached files in one of my maintained profiles (which is often).

How does one change the "default file" location?

Thanks

I don't know the exact path but all settings like this are now stored in the Registry.

thanks. That is a rather obvious location for such things :banghead:

I did a Registry search for "Outlook" and there were a million hits and I cut the search off. I then searched for the current default Outlook directory, but found nothing.
