That means either outlook isn't closing completely or the profile is
corrupt.

I am having a similar problem with autocomplete. I have Windows XP and
Microsoft 2007. The autocomplete feature is checked in Outlook. The
autocomplete feature works as long as Outlook is on. However, if you
close
Outlook and open it back up, the autocomplete feature doesn't work and it
is
still checked in the options menu. I have searched for the nk2 file and
it
does not show up on the search. I have made sure the advanced options
showed
the hidden files, but it still doesn't find it. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks,
Teresa

If you have enabled autocompletion and have populated a cache by sending
messages, then you will have an NK2 file. It cannot be otherwise.

When I click on advanced email options, it doesn't show me the field
"Suggest
manes while completing To, Cc, Bcc" Why and how do I get it?

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?




I have a Vista Machine I installed Outlook 2007. The auto fillin
checkbox
is
set in outlook: To: CC: BCC there was no .nk2 files- even after
showing
all
protected and hidden files...
I created a file called, profilename.nk2
I thought by creating this file, it would resolve the issue- it didnt..
I
made sure the name of the File was exact(case, etc)

When you are in outlook... you type in the name or pull from an address
book... it saves the names you type in..while in outlook 2007, but the
moment
you get out of outlook and reenter- the name are gone..

I have removed outlook 2007 completely as well and reloaded!!
Any suggestions?

Is there a size limit to this .nk2 file? Is there any way to restore a
version from yesterday?

I sent an email to a couple of thousand people and now my auto-complete
feature is only showing those names. I am missing a lot of other ones that
used to be there?

Any ideas?

Thank you...

2,000 entries. Add a new entry after that and the oldest one will be removed.
