Outlook 2007 Auto Complete
Hello All, This is my first post here and I hope someone can help. I am having trouble with auto fill when creating a new email. If I type in someones email address in the TO section it will work again if I have not closed Outlook 2007. When I open Outlook again the email addresses I have typed previously do not come up and they should. I do have it set up properly. I have suggest names on the TO CC and BC under Tools Options. From some research I believe it has to do with the NK2 file. I have done a complete search on my machine and it does not exist. I am using Windows XP Home __________________ -- Coach17 |

The 'username'.nk2 file is a hidden file, if you delete it, it will be
recreated, but empty. You cannot edit the nk2 file other than with third party utilities Are there no entries when you start typing? "Coach17" wrote in message ...

Your issue suggests a corrupt profile.
Create a new one under Control Panel-Mail Icon-profiles. Create a new one, do not copy your old one. -- Milly Staples [MVP - Outlook] Post all replies to the group to keep the discussion intact.

I did know that it is a hidden file. Before I did the search I let all hidden files be visible. I actually did not have this feature since I installed Office 2007 Professional. I came from Office 2000. The only time I get an auto complete is if I have not closed Outlook 2007. If I leave it open it is ok. From what I can tell is that is is not creating the .nk2 file so when I re-open Outlook I cannot get it to come up with even the last email address I typed. I did run a repair from the Office disk but that did not help. DL;3167470 Wrote: The 'username'.nk2 file is a hidden file, if you delete it, it will be recreated, but empty.

I created the new profile and set it to manually ask which profile to use and that worked fine. When I opened up Outlook none of my previous emails were there and my folders I had set up. How do I get all of my emails etc. into this new profile? I do appreciate all of your help.
