How to migrate "remembered" addresses?

H

Hank Arnold (MVP)

We have just completed the migration of our users to a new Citrix farm.
Everything is under control except for a couple of users (senior
managers, of course), who, apparently have never created contacts in
their Outlook 2003 clients. They depended on the remembered addresses
(the ones that appear as you type in an address).

Needless to say, I'm being told to find a way to restore these. The
original farm is still running. Is there a file I can copy over? the
Outlook versions are identical. The OS is 2003 R2 (new) and 2000 (old).

TIA,

AFAIK the address autocompletion file is held locally on the individual
machines..... *.nk2 files.

In XP, it would probably be in the "C:\Documents and
Settings\<user>\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook" folder. The file will be
an NK2 file of the same name as their profile -- outlook.NK2 maybe.
