SYMPTOMS
When you create a new profile in Outlook 2002, you may want to add a profile without e-mail services. If you try to add the Outlook Address Book before any other service to the profile that you created, you may receive the following error message:

The profile name you have entered already exists. Please enter a different profile name.



CAUSE
This behavior can occur because the E-mail Accounts Manager automatically adds an Outlook Address Book when a new profile is created.
