Hi Diane, I know you're an Outlook mastermind, but not sure if this extends into Excel! I have code that pulls the "Contacts" list, but I'm trying to do the same with the Auto-complete. To do so, the code needs to know the "name" of the list.
For example, "Contacts", "Global Address List", etc You can't use VBA I don;t think redemption can read it either, but will check to access the autocomplete list - but nirsoft.

Outlook orders the address by recently used - so old addresses you haven't used should be removed. I was hoping to add the contact directly to the Contacts address book. I can only see this person when I click on To: and search the displayed list. He never actually shows up in my People address book.

I moved them to her contacts so they would sync with Google Apps to her account on her new computer. She won't have the autofill contacts but at least she will have the contacts.
Since this feature is limited to Exchange mailboxes I am afraid that there are not many options left to your user. Yes, some of them were duplicated, but it asked to cmbine them when I moved the contacts so it did not make any duplicates.
