    Outlook contacts

    Hi all

    Apologies about not explaining myself well on this.

    Is there anyway I can force Outlook to look for the contacts from the outlook address book like attatched?

    Help would be appreciated thanks in advance!

    I think thats just a history of previously used contacts. There is no way I know of of populating that with the address book contacts.

    Although it would be handy to know how to.

    Yeah it will only show contacts that you have used before, I don't think you can get it to show the full address book

    they're governed by a NK2 file in the application data for the users profile.

    So in theory you could create a 'golden' image and populate it in all profiles...but is it really worth it? you'd need to update it all the time.

    Especially as a quick CTRL+K checks addresses in the address book....
