Email Address

[Jeff]

I am using Outlook 2000.

When I am typing someone's address is the "To" field, how do I have outlook automatically pull the person's address from my address book? I would like to be able to type "kar" and Outlook would pull the first "karen" in it.

Outlook 2000 doesn't do this. Outlook 2002 and 2003 do.

Of course it does, right click on the contacts folder, go

to properties, click on Outlook Address Book tab and check
off the Show this folder as an e-mail Adress Book.

When I go to the Outlook address book tab, the option to Show this folder as
an e-mail address book is grayed out. Any suggestions?
