In Outlook, how do you delete the memory file for the “To…” box.

You know how when you type in a contact, it “autosuggests” the contact name?
I like the feature, but I’ve got some misspellings in that thing and need to
either edit it or delete the bugger altogether and start again. What do I do?

Posting again under a different name? If so, look at the reply to your first
post.

Thanks Russ, and pardonez, I'm using 2002.

Problem, though, the "individual delete" feature works as you describe it,
but when when I follow the instruction in article 287623, the machine can't
locate any file with the extension *.NK2.

Bob,

Using Google, do a search for NK2 file. A utility will pop up on the right
hand side that you may want to look at.

Are you searching for hidden files?
