List of contacts
"Alexey" <alexey[ at ]hotmail.co.uk> 12/17/2008 9:06:46 AM
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

A

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

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
