1. On the computer with the saved AutoComplete names, go to drive:Documents and Settingsuser nameApplication DataMicrosoftOutlook.Note  Depending on your file settings, this folder might be hidden. To view the files in this folder, do one of the following:

    

   Microsoft Windows XP

    

   1. Click Start, and then click My Computer.
   2. On the Tools menu, click Folder Options.
   3. Click the View tab, and then, under Advanced settings, under Hidden files and folders, click Show hidden files and folders.

   Microsoft Windows 2000

    

   1. Double-click My Computer on your desktop.
   2. On the Tools menu, click Folder Options.
   3. Click the View tab, and then click Show hidden files and folders.
2. Right-click profile name.nk2, and then click Copy.Tip  You can copy the file to removable media, such as a floppy disk or a CD, and then copy the file to the correct location on the other computer. Or you can attach the file to an e-mail message and send the message to yourself. On the new computer, open the attachment in Outlook, and then save it to the correct location.

    

    

3. On the computer where you want to populate the AutoComplete feature, copy the file to drive ocuments and Settingsuser nameApplication DataMicrosoftOutlook.
4. If the Outlook user profile name is different on the computer where you are moving the .nk2 file, you must rename the file with the same Outlook user profile name after you copy it to the correct folder. For example, if you move Kim Akers.nk2 from the original computer with an Outlook user profile name of Kim Akers, and you copy the Kim Akers.nk2 file to the new computer, you must rename it with the Outlook profile name being used on the new computer.
5. When prompted about replacing the existing file, click Yes.
6. Open Outlook to view changes.

1. Run Regedit, and go to this key:

   HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftOffice10.0OutlookSecurity (change 10.0 to 9.0 for Outlook 2000 SP3 or to 11.0 for Outlook 2003, 12.0 for Outlook 2007 )

2. Under that key, add a new string value named Level1Remove.
3. For the value for Level1Remove, enter a semicolon-delimited list of file extensions. For example, entering this:

   .mdb;.url

   would unblock Microsoft Access files and Internet shortcuts. Note that the use of a leading dot was not previously required, however, new security patches may require it. If you are using  “mdb;url” format and extensions are blocked, add a dot to each extension. Note also that there is not a space between extensions.

If you are using this registry entry, a glance at Help | About Microsoft Outlook will show Security Mode: User Controlled above the license information. See OL2002 You Cannot Open Attachments for more information on this registry entry.
