Autocomplete address

[Dudley]

Just installed Outlook (replacing Outlook Express). Is
there a way to set it up so that when I start typing an
address, it completes it automatically as in Outlook
Express?

Tool, Options, (on the Preferences tab) E-mail Options, Advanced Email
options. The lowest of the groupings is "When sending a message".
One of the options is "Suggest names while completing To, Cc and Bcc
fields". Check that off. I believe that will do the trick for you.
Please bear in mind that I don't know your version of Outlook, this is
for 2002 (XP).

I hope this helps!

After you enter the email address the 1st time, Outlook will
autocomplete from then on.
