My Outlook version is 2003 SP2. As far as my auto compete list, it contains
EVERYONE to whom & FROM whom I have ever sent an e-mail!!!! Based on your
question, it does not appear that I made the problem clear in my e-mail. If
there were only ONE entry in my list, I could simply try to delete the whole
Outook NK2 list-couldn't I?

Just in case, let me try to quickly restate the problem. Outlook Help does
offer a solution, which is typing a the first letter of the mailing address,
seeing the auto complete list for that letter, using the up & down arrows to
choose the one(s) you want to delete & pressing "delete" in order to do so.
I know of no other way to open the list than to do it this way, one by one,
letter by letter.

I hope this helps & thanks for your valuable time.

Does the suggestion list contain more than one entry?

My Auto Complete is so full of nonsense that I MUST clear out the names
which
don't belong there. However, when I do as instructed, something seems to
be
amiss. Here's exactly what I'm doing & what's happening:

As per the instructions, I open a new e-mail & in the "To" field, & start
with the letter "a" (for instance) to bring up the addresses. The
instructions say to use the up & down arrows, highlight entries I do not
want
& click delete.

Unfortunately, when I do click delete, I get that sound ("gonk"? LOL)
which
always indicates that the action I'm trying to perform is not allowed.

That's it; I get stuck here every time, with no solution.

HELP!
