    Ensure the Shared check box is selected when you create the custom exception definitions.

  2. Locate the Ppexcept.ini and Ppstyles.ini files on your computer.
  3. Send the files to other users or put the files in a shared network location.

Results

If you create new shared custom exception definitions after you distribute the Ppexcept.ini and Ppstyles.ini files, you must send users updated copies of the files.
