I am wondering if Outlook 2003 provides the option to automatically complete
the email address when composing. It is probably one of my favorite
features in Outlook Express, and I would like to know if I'll have that same
feature if I make the switch to Outlook 2003.

Outlook has the autocompletion cache (controlled by the "Suggest names while
completing To, Cc, and Bcc fields" setting on ToolsOptionsE-mail
OptionsAdvanced E-mail Options dialogue) which will remember those
addresses to which you send mail and suggest them subsequently when you type
in a recipient field when composing. It is not tied in any way to your
Contacts like OE was tied to the WAB, however.
