 Code:
;Set a registry key to trigger Outlook to import the PRF file when Outlook starts up
;
; By 		Andrew Barnes
;
; Tested on OutlookXP, Windows2000 - Easy to modify for others
;
; Beginners : HOW TO: Create a PRF File (Q308300) 

;The Custom Installation Wizard:
;	Download orktools.exe from: 
;	The Custom Installation Wizard can be found in:
;	"Start\Programs\Microsoft Office Tools\Microsoft Office XP Resource Kit Tools\Custom Installation Wizard"
;	once Office XP Resource Kit (orktools.exe) is installed.
;	orktools.exe can be found @ ;...

;	Create a PRF File by Using the Custom Installation Wizard:
;	The PRF file is a text file with syntax that Microsoft Outlook uses to generate a profile. By
;	using a PRF file, you can Set up new profiles For users OR modify existing profiles without
;	affecting other aspects of your Outlook (OR Microsoft Office) installation. You can also
;	manually edit a PRF file to customize Outlook to include services that are NOT included
;	In the Custom Installation Wizard user interface.

;Note:	The most straightforward way to create a PRF file with Outlook 2002 profile settings is to
;		customize the settings In the Custom Installation Wizard, AND then to export the settings to
;		a PRF file.

;To create a PRF file In the Custom Installation Wizard: 
;1.	On the Outlook: Customize Default User Profile page of the wizard, Select how you want to
;	customize profiles For your users. To specify settings to be included In a PRF file, Select
;	Modify Profile OR New Profile, AND then click Next.
;
;2.	On the Next three pages, customize the profile information, For example, configure Exchange
;	server connections AND add accounts. 
;
;3.	On the Outlook: Remove Accounts AND Export Settings page, click Export Profile Settings.
;	When you are prompted, type (OR browse to) a file name AND location.
