My Outlook 2000 does not offer to autocomplete addresses when I type them
into a new email. I have searched high and low in Tools and Help to find out
how to turn on this feature. Cannot find. Does anyone know?

Versions of Outlook earlier than Outlook 2002 have no autocompletion
feature. They have a feature called auto-resolution. If you enter part of a
name or a nickname then tab out of the field (or hit Alt-K [Check Names]),
Outlook will attempt to resolve the name against your address book. If it
can't it'll red underline it and you can right click on the name to manually
resolve it. Outlook will save the resolution for future use.

Thanks for the Alt-K. It's better than what I had before.
