I had Outlook 2000 and then I upgraded to Outlook 2003. In outlook 2000, when I typed an email address it would complete the address for me. Now when I type an email address it does not complete for me. I went to my contacts in Outlook 2003 and none of the addresses were there. How do I get my addresses back and/or how do I get Outlook 2003 to start keeping all the address I reply to and complete the address when I type them?
 
This is a very confusing post.
First, Outlook 2000 had no autocompletion feature. So I don't know what you
mean.
You "went to your Contacts" in Outlook 2003? Where is that? The Contacts
Folder? Address Book? Where are the addresses missing?

Sorry about that.

My questions are; how do I get Outlook 2003 to start saving all the email
addresses I send to and how do I get Outlook to start auto-completing the
addresses as I type them.
 
It does that by default.
To be sure, go to Tools > Options... > Preferences > Email Options... >
Advanced Email options > and check "Suggest Names while completing..."
