Outlook 2000 has no autocomplete feature.
It has 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.
 
Ok the question is HOW do i turn on auto resolution, because i enter jo
and nothing comes up even though john is in my contacts...


Please be more specific

thanks for your help
