You can quickly and easily create a new NK2 (autocomplete file) using the
following work-around:
In MS Outlook, go to tools, options, mail setup, send/receive. Uncheck the
"Send immediately when connected box". Next, press the Send/Receive Button
(in Options) and uncheck "Schedule an automatic send/receive". Next
disconnect your computer from the internet by removing your network and/or
telephone connection. Open a new e-mail, press the bcc or to or cc button,
select the contact folder you would like to bring into your NK2
(autocomplete) file. Select all names by highlighting first and last
contact and then add them by pressing the OK button at the bottom. With
your computer disconnected, press the send button. This will automatically
populate your autocomplete file with all of the selected e-mail addresses.
Next, go to your Outbox and delete the e-mail(s) that you just created. Go
back into your Tools, Options, Mail Setup, Send/Receive and change your
options back to the original settings. Remember to put your mail settings
back and plug in your removed cables.

An outlook 2003 user states that when sending out an email and when they
type in a letter in the "to" area the email addresses that were in memory
when you type a letter or name are gone. They said they didn't do anything
different. The addresses are in the contact list but there is nothing in
memory so you have to type the whole address in. Is this possible or can
address in memory be deleted or removed?
