How to make Outlook 2010 start with a specific PST?
Just rebuilt a mate's crashed W7 computer.
Managed to retrieve his Outlook 2010 pst file.
Installed Outlook on the new computer, but - and think this was where I went wrong - I 'imported' the retrieved pst without creating an email account, mainly because I didn't know his details at the time.
However, the pst transferred and opened.
But when I finally got his details and created the account, it downloaded his mail (previous 14 days) from the server, and put them into a new pst.
That one works OK, too, and the old pst doesn't get any of the new mail.
So far, so good.
However, when Outlook starts, it always opens the old pst, and he has to click on the new one, in the left frame, to work in the current account.
How can I make it open the new account on startup? As you can see, I don't use Outlook myself
EDIT: It wouldn't be as simple as dragging one above the other in the left frame, would it? The upper account is the old one...
