Does anyone know if there is a way to edit the AutoComlete
cache? Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Shane
 
Thanks Russ, I appreciate the help. Is there a way to add
to the cache? I have a list I would like to add to a users
cahce to make sure it stays.

Thanks,
Shane

Remove individual addresses from the autocompletion cache by highlighting
the entry when presented in the suggested names list (use your arrow key to
migrate to the entry) and then hitting your Delete key before you tab out of
the field. To clear the entire cache, follow the instructions here:

No. There is no way to edit the cache natively. There might be some third
party apps that can do it, but I haven't seen any yet.

I am running Outlook 2003 and find that whenever I start the application I have no AutoComplete functionality. After I have sent some messages then it works again, but only for addresses I have typed during my session. Once I close Outlook and then start it up again I am starting all over with my AutoCompleteion. It is as if my cache gets wiped clean or something everytime I close the application. Has anyone else come across this

Another observation - I followed the link in the above thread that goes to a Microsoft webpage describes how clear the cache. I followed the instructions and came up blank - It appears I have no *.nk2 files. I did make sure that all my hidden folders and files are displayed, but can find no such file

Any suggestions?
 
Create a new profile.
Yours is corrupt.
