AutoNameCheck List

[Guest]

I've just issued a user with another desktop PC. Both PC's are exactly the
same, running W2K Pro SP4 with Outlook 2002 SP2 connecting to a MS Exchange
2000 server .
After configuring his profile and Outlook on the new PC, he finds that
whenever he types in an e-mail address that he often uses, the autonamecheck
or autocomplete list does not appear as it did on his old PC, because the
cache is still empty, and finds this very frustrating.
Is it possible to copy this list from his profile on his previous PC, and if
so, which files am I looking at. I did try and copy the SRS, FAV DAT files
from his previous profile, but it did not work.

Thanks

Johan

After reading a little more on my problem, I've discovered there is a
difference between AutoNameCheck and AutoComplete.
Well, it seems like my actual problem is with AutoComplete, that's when a
user starts entering an e-mail address and it is automatically completed or a
list appears. I would like to move the file from the previous PC to the new,
if possible.

It's all the same file.
Copy the NK2 file from the previous installation. Rename it to match the NK2
file on the new installation. Then replace the file on the new installation
with the one from the old.
