autofill data location

[ERG]

Where is the data stored for the autofill functionality of Outlook? For
instance, in Outlook 2003, when you start to type a frequently emailed
address, Outlook starts to autofill possible matches.

I ask this because I just switched a client to a new computer, and he
would like to have his autofill matches back. He's very unorganized and
didn't use the contact manager to keep track of his contacts.

Any input is greatly appreciated.

File has an NK2 extension and has nothing whatsoever to do with the Contacts
data.

Actually, it doesn't. There is a lot of useful information there.
Unfortunately, among it is not the default location of the NK2 file.

<blink, blink> Well. Imagine that. I'm surprised.
