Does anyone know if it is possible for two Outlook
profiles to share the same OST file?

I don't think it's possible, but it should be easy enough for you to test.

Since the OST is associated with a mailbox (i.e., it gets synchronized with
a specific Exchange mailbox) and I don't see any way to specify the name of
the OST, I don't see how this would be possible or even desirable. You'd be
trying to sync two distinct Exchange mailboxes with the same OST. If they
_are_ the same Exchange mailbox, what's the point of two different profiles?

Well, I have found a way to change the name of the OST. First, offline
folders must be disabled and Outlook restarted. Then, the offline folder
settings can be changed and any path and name for the OST can be chosen.
Sorry for the incorrect information. My comments about sharing an OST still
stand, however.
