Fixing/Deleting the "Autosuggest" Feature in Outlook

G

Guest

In Outlook, how do you delete the memory file for the “To…†box.

You know how when you type in a contact, it “autosuggests†the contact name?
I like the feature, but I’ve got some misspellings in that thing and need to
either edit it or delete the bugger altogether and start again. What do I do?

Thanks Russ, and pardonez, I'm using 2002.

Problem, though, the "individual delete" feature works as you describe it,
but when when I follow the instruction in article 287623, the machine can't
locate any file with the extension *.NK2.

Wassup?

Bob,

Using Google, do a search for NK2 file. A utility will pop up on the right
hand side that you may want to look at.
