MS Office Forum / Outlook / Contacts / January 2004Removing Cached Email List
Hi, When typing in email addresses in the 'to' field, outlook brings up a box of possible contacts it will be as i'm typing. this is fine although there are many that come up that are now no longer valid, so my question is how to get rid of these redundant ones.. many thanks Matt Highlight them and hit keyboard delete. > Hi, > [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > > Matt simple as that!!! cheers.. >-----Original Message----- >Highlight them and hit keyboard delete.

How do I get rid of an address if it is the only possibility offered? For instance, if I type in Scott, and I know I don't want Scott's internet email address to be in the cache anymore. This leads us to ask how we can just edit the cache, without having to do them on a onesy-twosey basis. Chris >-----Original Message----- >I also would like an answer to this question ....

The folder the file is in may be hidden to set Windows Explorer to show hidden or system folders. -- Ken Slovak [MVP - Outlook] http://www.slovaktech.com Author: Absolute Beginners Guide to Microsoft Office Outlook 2003 Reminder Manager, Extended Reminders, Attachment Options http://www.slovaktech.com/products.htm > I tried this, and it works as long as I have more than > one possibility, forcing Outlook to present with me the [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > > Chris Hi, I found the message thread below, but did not see the instructions for how to delete one or more of the suggested name completions that is suggested, so that I don't have to pick from the list over and over for those I send mail to most frequently. Could you provide the instructions? Or refer me to someone who might. Thank you, Catherine >-----Original Message----- >I tried this, and it works as long as I have more than [quoted text clipped - 34 lines] >> >. Remove individual addresses from the autocompletion cache by highlighting the entry when presented in the suggested names list (use your arrow key to migrate to the entry) and then hitting your Delete key before you tab out of the field. To clear the entire cache, follow the instructions here: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;Q287623  SignatureRuss Valentine [MVP-Outlook] > Hi, > [quoted text clipped - 51 lines] > >> > >. |
