On a new computer (XP) I can access my extensive contact list from the
Outlook "contacts" button. However, I can't get the email program to
automatically fill in names as I type. Also, the address book shows empty.
How do I get these two to integrate and to autofill email addresses. Thank
you for any help you can provide. I've tried repeatedly to locate the answer
to this ... I think it may be related to how I did the import ... not sure.
THANK YOU!

Two separate issues.
1. All you need to do to get your Outlook Address Book is configure it:

2. Your autocompletion cache will not be populated until you send messages.
If you did not save your autocompletion cache from another installation you
will have to wait.
