how can I use auto complete from my address book

[SusanM]

I have installed Office 2007. My address book was imported from Office 2003.
How do I use Auto complete when addressing someone from my address book. If
I have emailed someone before, auto complete is there, but if I am sending an
email to someone for the first time (since downloading 2007) , the address
doesn't come in from my address book.

I've found that after I've sent an email once, the Auto complete for that
contact will then be there... so you may have to insert the contact once from
your address book and then auto complete should work for that contact.

Thanks for your reply. This is what I was doing also. I just thought that
the program should be picking up addresses automatically from your address
book, as was the case in Outlook 2003. I assumed that I had not put in a
correct rule. If anyone has made this work, let me know.
