Hi
When I start to type an email address into the To, CC or BCC boxes, i get a
drop down list of people i have previously emailed ( I am sorry I am unsure
of what this is acleld).

What I am trtying to find out is where this list is stored on my computer -
can anyone tell me please, and is it possible to access to copy and paste to
another application?

Thanks

On OL03 it's the *.nk2 file in:
C:\Documents and Settings\[user]\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook

Thanks Michael - what program is likely to open the file?

Unless you have installed a program explicitly designed to manipulate that
file, Outlook is the only other program that accesses it.
 
Brian,
I have just switched to Microsoft Online and was wondering how to get the
dropdown list of email addresses into my contact list. Can I export this
list?

I don't know what "Microsoft Online" is. The question is, are you running
Outlook on your own PC? If so, then you can export the autocompletion cache
as a CSV using one of these tools:
http://www.ingressor.com/desktop.htm
http://www.nk2.info/
The former is a full-features NK2 file maintenance application that you
purchase. The latter is strictly and export tool, but it's free.
 
Brian,

I was hoping you could resolve an issue for me? I have several browns in my
firm and when a user address an e-mail to a brown he/she gets a list of
browns to choose from from time to time a user chooses the wrong brown. Do
you know of a utility or an Outlook function that can verfy the sender name
prior to sending the e-mail.

Thanks

Are these entries in the GAL or in a Contacts folder? The best way, in my
opinion, is to open the contact record and verify from the full informaiton
there that the person is the one you want. I don't know of any utility that
takes the place of being thorough.
