[Blind-Computing] outlook 2010 and win 7
i am tearing my hair out trying to get outlook to work. i copied my csv addressbook from OE and imported it onto the new laptop with win 7 and O 2010. the contacts are there. I even managed to set up a distribution list though that's not what o calls it. i have the navigation pane set to normal and the reading and to do panes turned off. I have all the settings for my isp in there and can send and receive email. my current problem is trying to get o to autocomplete an email address. i looked and the setting for finishing an address is checked. if i try doing an address, though, it will not complete it no matter how many letters i type. i suspect i'm missing some setting but have no idea what. I'd appreciate any suggestions. Thanks, Karen For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/
Re: [Blind-Computing] outlook 2010 and win 7
Karen, Are you positive all contacts are imported? Hit Ctrl 3 to see if they are? If so, while in outlook, hit Alt F and then arrow down to options. Hit enter and then Ctrl Tab to get to the mail tab to adjust settings. Tab through and make sure the box to auto complete the address when typing in the To, CC, or Bcc field is checked. Mine was by default but I unchecked as I found it annoying. I would rather just type in part of the name, hit Ctrl K and select from the matches. I'm using XP and Outlook 2010 but this issue has to do with Outlook, not the operating system . If this doesn't work let me know and there are a couple of other things you can check out too.

Re: [Blind-Computing] outlook 2010 and win 7
Hello Karen; I'm not sure, but you may be interested in the following; This program actually works. http://www.nirsoft.net In the following section, you can find utilities related to Microsoft Outlook/Office: NK2Edit Every time that you type an email address or name in the message window of MS-Outlook, it automatically offer you a list of users and email address that you can choose. This feature is known as 'AutoComplete' and Outlook automatically build this emails list according to user activity and save it into a file with .NK2 extension. In some circumstances, you may need to fix or modify the values appeared in the AutoComplete list, or you may want to remove unwanted email addresses and/or to add new email addresses. MS-Outlook doesn't provide any ability to edit this AutoComplete list, so this is where NK2Edit software can help you. NK2Edit is a real NK2 editor that allows you to modify all fields in NK2 file, delete unwanted records, add new records, fix/recover corrupted files, merge 2 or more NK2 files into a single NK2 file, and more... I did run this program, and indeed, my auto complete does work. It is a little tricky, however, if you wish, I could provide some simple steps, which may help. -Original Message- From: blind-computing-boun...@jaws-users.com [mailto:blind-computing-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of karen schrade Sent: Wednesday, November 02, 2011 11:40 AM To: blind computing Subject: [Blind-Computing] outlook 2010 and win 7 i am tearing my hair out trying to get outlook to work. i copied my csv addressbook from OE and imported it onto the new laptop with win 7 and O 2010. the contacts are there.
