The closest GC registry setting does indeed make sure Outlook 2002 is talking to the GC you'd like it to. In general that's an excellent idea. Unfortunately the original poster had the idea of forcing the client to only use DSAccess. Once that's been forced, the client is not talking to a GC, therefore the registry setting you referenced would have no effect and the client would potentially be subject to the issue I referenced.
