My addresses won't autofill
In Outlook. I think it's because I don't have the .NK2 file on my computer.
How can I get it? Thanks!

My addresses won't autofill
What version of Outlook? If it's Outlook 2000 or earlier, you won't have an
AutoComplete function. In Outlook 2002 and later, AutoComplete works against e-mail addresses you have typed into a new message, not against your contacts. Type an e-mail address into a new message and send the message, then next time you start typing the address, you should get the AutoComplete suggestion. -- Jocelyn Fiorello MVP - Outlook *** Messages sent to my e-mail address will NOT be answered -- please reply only to the newsgroup to preserve the message thread. *** "Rena" wrote: In Outlook.

My addresses won't autofill
I have Outlook 2003. It will autofill for one day, for instance if I send
the same person 2 emails in 1 day, it AutoCompletess the second email. But then the next day it doesn't remember the email addresses. In reading about the problem on the Microsoft help pages it said to search for the .NK2 file. I did a search on my computer and do not have that file. Is there a way to get it? Is that indeed the problem? Thanks! "Jocelyn Fiorello [MVP - Outlook]" wrote: What version of Outlook? If it's Outlook 2000 or earlier, you won't have an AutoComplete function.

My addresses won't autofill
Did you search within hidden folders when looking for the .NK2 file? It will
be in a hidden folder. It will only exist if at least one autocomplete entry has been saved. -- Jocelyn Fiorello MVP - Outlook *** Messages sent to my e-mail address will NOT be answered -- please reply only to the newsgroup to preserve the message thread. *** "Rena" wrote: I have Outlook 2003.

My addresses won't autofill
I did. I've tried everything I can think of and it still doesn't work. I
followed the directions from the Microsoft help page to show hidden files and then did the search for the .NK2 files and nothing. I have sent emails to someone twice today so that address auto completes so it should show, right? Any other suggestions? Thanks!

My addresses won't autofill
And you manually typed the addresses in for those two messages you sent
today? Or did you use your Contacts folder to address the messages? Try sending an e-mail to someone who is not in your Contacts list, so that you have to manually type in the address. -- Jocelyn Fiorello MVP - Outlook *** Messages sent to my e-mail address will NOT be answered -- please reply only to the newsgroup to preserve the message thread. *** "Rena" wrote: I did.
