name recognition

[Wipper]

How do I set up my email so that when I start typing the first few letters of
an email address in the "To" it will recognize addresses that have previously
been sent?

thank you.

If you are using 2007 then this won't apply but here you go.

1. Go to TOOLS > OPTIONS

2. Select the PREFERENCES tab

3. Click on EMAIL OPTIONS

4. Click the ADVANCED OPTIONS button

5. Down near the bottom of the dialog there is a checkbox for "Suggest names
while completing To, CC, and BCC fields. Check it.
5.

Actually, my previous instructions DO apply to Outlook 2007 as well. I just
looked and it is exactly the same.
