When I type an address in the address field in outlook, it
used to autocomplete for me. Now not only does it not auto
complete but if I type a name for example "Doe, John J"
and tab to the next line, outlook will automatically
switch the address to "Doe; John". It inserts a semicolon
in-between Doe and John. I can click the "To" address
button, and type "Doe, John" in and it will auto complete
or should I say show John Doe.

This is a new computer that came with Outlook 2003. I
found that I really did not like Outlook 2003 and
uninstalled it and went back to 2002. Could this have
someting to do with it.

Thanks
Dale
 
Uncheck the option to use commas as address separators.
