how can i link different profiles to same (just one) contact list

[adrianbtc2k via OfficeKB.com]

Hi,

I got different profiles created in outlook 2000, whevnever i create a new
profile, i must use the import/export wizard to export contact list (personal)
from existing profile to excel and then re-import to outlook. This is rather
troublesome, so would like to know that is there a way or how to link just
one standard contact list to different profiles ..... Thanks

regards

Simple - since Outlook stores the contact list in the .pst file, simply
configure Outlook to reuse the same .pst file.

You did not state why you want to use separate profiles so we will presume
it is to use separate email accounts?

thanks for the replied,

but...cannot ...because different profile uses different pst (that's the
reason why configure different profile).
