When I use Outlook on my laptop, the client is going to OWA under the
covers. When I first start Outlook I'm prompted for a network
username/password. If I make a mistake when I type this password, the
only way I know to fix the problem is to quit outlook and make sure that
there is no longer any outlook.exe process and then restart. This is
complicated by the fact that we use Communicator at my company, and so
that app also has to be shut down.

Is there an easy way to bring back the prompt so I can correct the
password without having to quit Outlook altogether?

Thanks!

No, it's not. Both Outlook and Outlook Web Access (not related to Outlook)
are Exchange clients, accessing a mailbox on an Exchange server. Outlook
cannot "go to" OWA. What are you really using? Ask OWA questions in
microsoft.public.exchange.clients.

If you enter the wrong Exchange credentials, eventually Outlook will time out
and ask again. In fact, it shouldn't take very long for that reprompt to
occur.
