Copy user profile

Hi

We have 10 Windows XP PRO computers in a Workgroup.
Now we have installed a Win2003 domain, and joined all computers into
domain. The problem is, when user logs into his/her computer (domain
account) they get 'ordinary' profile. Is there a way to quickly copy
settings from ther computer workgroup profile into a new created domain
profile? They all have their own settings like desktop, screen saver, icons,
my documents, Outlook mail account and settings. I tried to copy existing
workgroup profile in domain profile but it only copies documents. Settings
(like mail account) are not copied.
Any ideas how can this be done so that users won't know the difference?
Regards,
Miha

You could use the "Copy Profile" function that is provided here: Control
Panel / System / Advanced / User Profiles. Make sure to reboot the
machine first and perform the function while logged on as Administrator.

Thank's i'll give it a try.

Have tried this (copy profile from cpanel/system/advanced/user profiles). I
was copying workgroup into a domain profile but after login into domain
users profile nothing was there, only my documents. Outlook was not
configured, no favorites just like a new user will log into.
Any ideas?
Regars,Miha
