I'm starting to use Outlook instead of Oulook Express for email. When I send a message I have to type the whole address or search for it instead of having it automatically inserted like express does. Anybody know how to change that? Also wondering how to view pictures in the body. I recieved a message with a few pics in it but couldn't see the pictures only the outline. I can't figure that one out either. In express I knew how to change that but this is different.

Check Names should work. It depends how you created the names in your Contacts. For example: I have Brenda Jones and Frank Brennan. If I just type in Brenn and move away from the To: field it will automatically find Frank Brennan. If I only type Bre and move out of the field it will be underlined because it could not find a single match. Go to Tools, Check Names and it will then present a list of possible matches. You can add the Check Names button to your toolbar by going to View, Toolbars, Customize. Someone else will have to respond to your second question as I am out of time. Bryan

thanks for the help, it worked.
