I don;'t recall if tuning it off deletes an existing NK2, but a new one will
not be created until you send messages and close outlook.

My automatic completion option in Office 2003 hasn't worked correctly for
some time. I was directed by the help file to turn on view hidden files,
search for the *.nk2 file, delete it. I'd done that some time back to
resolve
a problem.

Now I find there's no .nk2 file on my computer.

I've turned off the suggest names option, exited Outlook, and then turned
it
on again, re-exited and restarted again, hoping to force it to generate
the
file. But no .nk2 file and no working automatic competion

Now what?
