Recognizing Contact Names to Populate "To" Field

G

G118

I use to be able to start typing a contact's name and Outlook would recognize
the name and populate the To: field. Just upgraged to OUTLOOK 2003....how do
you turn this capability on? Thanks,

It is on by default.
If this is a new installation you simply haven't populated the
autocompletion cache yet.

Thank you very much. One more question. In Outlook 2000 you could manually
insert your signature line. How do you do that with Outlook 2003?

How do I know if I am using the Outlook editor or MS WOrd?
