Configuring Automatic Name Suggestion in Outlook 2002

The default setting in Outlook 2002 is to offer to complete the name of a person you are sending mail.

This is based on anyone you have ever sent mail to.
For me things brings up far too many names and I prefer to simply use the names in my contact list.
(Start typing a name and press Ctrl-K to pull up names in your address book)

To turn off this setting:

1. Go to Tools / Options
2. Click on the E-mail Options button
3. Click on the Advanced E-mail Options button
4. Uncheck Suggest names while completing To, Cc, and Bcc fields

If you want to leave the setting in place and simply delete individual suggestions:

1. Us the arrow keys to highlight a name
2. Press the Delete key to delete just that entry
