Title: Simple Change Is Eluding Me
Post by: schuarta on June 20, 2014, 11:18:03 AM

I have two pc's, both operating with Windows 7 Pro 64 Bit.

On one of the two, when I go to type my (long) email address, a prompt of the full address appears after I type the first 3 or 4 characters. I click on the prompt and my full address is filled in. This is very helpful and quick.  :)

I am embarrassed to say I can't figure out where to turn on this feature on my other computer.  :-[
Can someone give me a quick couple of instructions?  ???

It depends on what Program you're using for your e-mail. In Outlook Express, for example, you can click on Tools, Options, Send and you will need to put a check mark in the box for "automatically complete e-mail address when composing".
