How do I make addresses appear automatically with first letters?
I recently upgraded to Outlook from OE. I am used to an email address in my
address book appearing automatically after I type the first several letters. Outlook isn't doing this. How can I make it happen?

That feature was added in OL2002. What version are you using?

Just in case you are expecting more than you'll get.....
Outlook only suggests names which you have recently used. This autocompletion function is NOT looking at your Contacts - only names you recently sent email to.

I checked one more box that included the words"autocomplete." That may have
done it. Don't know how I missed it before because that's the first place I went. Thanks. I'll let you know. "Vince Averello [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: See if the suggest option is checked he Tools menu Options Email Advanced "Kidz Writer" wrote in message ... I'm using 2002 version.

How do I make addresses appear automatically with first letter
Several minutes later: No, Vince. It didn't do it and I can't find any other
thing that looks even likely that isn't already checked. Any other ideas? I'm using Word for my platform instead of Outlook. Could that make a difference? kidzwriter "Vince Averello [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: See if the suggest option is checked he Tools menu Options Email Advanced "Kidz Writer" wrote in message ...

How do I make addresses appear automatically with first letter
Word makes no difference. Are the names you are typing ones you have
recently emailed? Test it - send an email to a friend, then make a second new email and start typing their name. Does it start the autocompletion process (pop down some names with the same first letter)?
