Angie Drop down the 'Tools' menu then have a a look at the tabs under the 'Options' sub-menu item and see if you can find anything to do with 'Auto complete'. I have Outlook at home and that auto completes addresses for me but the version I have here at workdoes not, so I can't give precise instructions. Alternatively, press f1 whilst in Outlook, press alt a to bring up the Answer wizard and type 'auto complete email addresses' in the question box and press enter on search. Check through the list of topics it finds and hopefully you will find instructions on how to do it.

Hello All, I recently started using Outlook. For years I have used Eudora and love it but, my job requires me to use Outlook. Outlook has allot of great features that I could really utilize if learned how. The thing I do not like is that when I start to type in my address in the, TO, field why won't it finish my address for me? I do not know all my addresses off the top of my head so this makes e- mailing a little difficult. A coworker showed me Outlook Express today and that looks to be a very easy program to use. I just thought I would ask what do some of you prefer? If the address should be automatic and I am doing something wrong I would surely appreciate any suggestions you may have.
