Default Changing default Outlook 2003 profile name for all users


I am trying to customise an Office 2003 Installation so that when a new
user logs on, the Outlook Profile name is based on the users full name.


For example: If user John Smith logs on, a default profile is created
called 'Default Outlook Profile'. I want the profile name to be John
Smith.

Now, I have got this to work before in Outlook 2000. In the custom
installation wizard, there was a section called 'Workgroup and
corporate settings'. In the section, there was a Gernal Tab, with the
option "Profile Name". Calling the profile %FULLNAME% created a new
profile based on the users full name.

In the Office 2003 Custom installation wizard, there is no similar
section. I have also tested all Office 2003 Custom Installation
settings related to profiles, but nothing seems to work.
Note: All users are using Office 2003 and Exchange Server 5.5
