Command Line Switches
Command line switches can be specified when running the program's executable file 'Outlook Profile 2008.exe'.
Silent
Automatically process the user who is currently logged in (user who is running 'Outlook Profile 2008.exe').
Syntax: /Silent
Configuration File
Alternate location of the 'Configuration File' that is different from the Default Configuration File. See the Configuration File Editor for more detail on 'Configuration Files' and Deployment for complete working examples.
Syntax: /ConfigFile:<filename>
Examples
Network Drive: /ConfigFile:"y:\outlookprofile.xml"
UNC Path: /ConfigFile:"\\server\\share\outlookprofile.xml"
WebServer: /ConfigFile:"http://webserver/outlookprofile.xml"
Suppression
Suppress the majority of error messages displayed when the /Silent switch has been specified. Error messages will still be logged to the 'Event Viewer'. This switch is not recommended because the end user will not receive instant feedback if something goes wrong.
Syntax: /Suppress
Hide Progress
Suppress the progress window displayed when the /Silent switch has been specified.
Syntax: /HideProgress
Edit Options Mode
Start Outlook Profile 2008 without initilizing the application. This allows the 'Tools' menu to be accessed directly that contains the Configuration File Editor and Default Configuration File features.
Syntax: /EditOptionsMode
