Default Outlook 2K3 New computer auto-fill To: field?

Why on eart would I have to pay $52 so that the NK2 files can be opened so I
can use the autocomplete within outlook. This is absorb. I just paid $300
to upgrade last fall to office 2007 and now you're recommending me going to
another website and download that has an additional fee?

I must be misunderstanding you.....

You may be interested in a utility that we developed to make greater utility
from your NK2 file. It can be fund at www.dcs-imaging.com/products.htm
It's called Owtlook. You can download a free demo if you're interested.

Old computer - Win2K SP4 - Outlook 2003 using .OST file with Exhange
Server
2003
New computer - WinXp Pro SP2 - Outlook 2003 using .OST file w/ same server

After setting up the new computer, everything works wonderfully EXCEPT
when
I compose e-mails, it doesn't auto-fill the e-mail address (To anymore
like
it used to on the old computer. There are e-mail addresses that I need
that,
unfortunately, aren't in my contact list, but have always auto-filled
before.
I still have the old computer. Is there a file I can transfer that will
re-populate the auto-fill feature?

Of course. You are completely misunderstanding.
You can easily transfer your autocompletion cache if you want to. Method has
been posted here many times and is documented by the people who wrote this
software that allows more advanced editing and recovery of NK2 data.
If you consider your NK2 an actual data source of value, plan to back it up
frequently. It will become corrupt very easily and should not be relied upon
as a data source.

Pay attention to the paragraph:
