Default Automatic completion of emails and nicknames doesn't work in Outlook 2002

Hi,
Recently I moved from OE to Outlook 2002 but I have problem - when I type
e-mail addresses Outlook doesn't automatically complete it. I searched
microsoft support and I found this: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/287623/
but it doesn't resolve my problem.
Could someone help me with this?

See if http://support.microsoft.com/kb/287854/en-us helps. Also,

Thanks Christina, but it doesn't work. I've setup this value and nothing.
The first link is not for my case becouse I'm moving from OE6 to Outlook
2002, not from Outlook 2000 to Outlook 2002.

Any other suggestions?

Why would you expect autocompletion to work in Outlook? You haven't
populated an autocompletion cache until you've sent messages to many
recipients.

That is a good idea for why not working the name suggestion function (even
thogh it works that way in OE6 without having a populated autocompletion
cache) but I think autocompletion should work (I expect it to show dropdown
box while typing and e-mail address).
Am I wrong?

As I said, it will not work until you have sent enough messages to have
populated your autocompletion cache. It does not work like OE.

I'm sorry. It was just a typing mistake. I saw it when I post but couldn't
fix it couse I'm using OE as a newsreader.

OE completes the addresses with those in your addressbook. However,
Outlook is using a file named "Profilname.NK2" for autocompleting. This
cache will be filled with all addresses you have ever typed in an email
address field (To, Cc, Bcc), regardless you do in manually or using the
Outlook addressbook.
You find the NK2-file in C:\Documents and
Settings\%Username5\Application Datas\Microsoft\Outlook
