Yes. You're missing a post that contains enough information for someone to
answer you.
Explain clearly what you are doing and what Outlook is not doing that you
think it should. Realize that Outlook 2000 has no autocompletion feature.

when starting an e-mail in outlook I was able to start typing a name of one
of my contacts. after 2 or 3 letters of that persons name it would recognize
(or auto fill) and underline this contacts information. it is no longer
doing this.

As I said, Outlook 2000 never did this and can't.
You must have been using a later version.
