Trying to set up Outlook on new PC as I had it on old one where e mail
address is automatically offered when part of a name is inserted, but no
luck in finding it.

What version of Outlook? For OL 2003, it's Tools>Options>E-mail
Options>Advanced E-mail Options: Suggest names while completing To, Cc, and
Bcc fields.

No such option in Outlook 2000. Versions of Outlook earlier than Outlook
2002 have no autocompletion feature. They have 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.
