Modifying or getting rid of an address from auto-fill list

I am running Outlook 2002. When I compose a new message, at the "To..."
field, after I type first 3 characters, a drop-down list appears
automatically listing all of the possible addresses Outlook can find.
Unfortunately this feature causes trouble to me because it doesn't always
list the email address: it only list the names of the match and if I don't
look carefully, I might be using the wrong address.

Is there a way to affect how OutLook builds this list? For instance, is
there a way to tell OutLook "whenever I type 'John', use *only*
(e-mail address removed)"?

Thanks,
 
No.
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:
