Can I extract the saved emails from the "To" field?

[cameronj]

I am working with a client of mine who just bought a new computer. Sh
often, instead of saving people into the address book, just too
advantage of the fact that outlook would autocomplete peoples' emai
addresses. So I've saved her Contacts, but that's not the importan
information to her, and I have no way (that I can see) of exporting th
autocomplete names. I can't even get a google search that tells m
anything helpful - can't even really figure out what to ask to get i
to understand my task. Figured this would be a good place to start
thanks for any help!

The Autocomplete is contained in a file with the extension *.nk2

How about looking for "export autocompletion"? Finds a lot of references
for me. Here's a free autocompletion caches exporter: http://www.nk2.info/
