AutoComplete is a feature of Internet Explorer and of Outlook Express. However, it is not available in Outlook 2000.

Outlook 2000 uses a method called Name Resolution. This feature of Outlook 2000 resolves the name you are typing or searches through your Contacts list to provide you with the correct e-mail name. To use this feature, follow these steps:
1. In Outlook 2000, open a new message.

2. Type the first three letters of an e-mail address that is stored in one of your contacts.
3. On the Tools menu, click Check Name.

You can also use the Check Name toolbar button (the one that has a red check mark and a picture of a person) or press CTRL+K.
