Auto fill doesn't work

[Kathryn]

Auto fill when entering names in TO: doesn't work at all. I have to type in
the entire email address or open the address book to select the address.
Is there some setting I can change to turn it on? I'm using Outlook 2000
SP-3.

Outlook 2000 had no autocomplete feature. It has a feature called
auto-resolution. If you enter part of a name or a nickname then tab out of
the field (or hit Alt-K [Check Names]), Outlook will attempt to resolve the
name against your address book. If it can't, it'll red underline it and you
can right click on the name to manually resolve it. Outlook will save the
resolution for future use.
