MS Office Forum / Outlook / Contacts / February 2004Auto Complete Problems
I just upgraded from Office 2000 to Office 2003 and don't seem to be able to get the Auto-Complete feature to work. I am typing the names into the TO/CC & BCC fileds and nothing happens. I am trying this in the "New Mail Message" window that opens, when I click on that icon. Is this the right place I assume? I type in a name I know is in my Outlook Address Book and nothing happens. I had trouble intitally with my Outlook Address Book, so that I deleted it and created a new one. Address Book works fine. All my contacts seem to be in there. The check mark for the Auto-Complete option is also on in the E-Mail options menu. Any ides or suggestions ? Thanks. How many messages have you sent? Autocomplete uses a cache of names created from messages you have sent, not your Address Book.

How is this problem fixed and how do you prevent it from happening again. I had two to three years of email addresses that I used on a regular basis. It just isn't so easy for us layman users to understand what cache is and how outlook all of a sudden loses data. What problem? You failed to include any information in your message and the thread is dead long ago. SignatureRuss Valentine [MVP-Outlook] > Russ, > > Your responses are not adequate.
