Office products behave badly after domain switch/profile rename.

We needed to change the domain that our users log in to. To do this we logged
into the new domain as each user on their respective computers, logged out,
logged in as the local administrator, removed the folder username.newDomain
from documents and settings, added the domain user permission to the old
username folder, renamed it to username.newDomain, and viola they had their
desktop etc.
The only problem we encountered with this technique is that when we run
Office apps, a few odd things happen unless we make the domain user a member
of the local administrators group.
The odd things are;
Outlook will not start at all.
Word and Excel ask for the username and initials every time they start.
For the moment we have everyone logging in as local admin, but we would like
to change this back.
Any ideas?
Paul
