You could have her try the address book technique. I know a few people that
do it that way. You open the Address book and choose the contacts there
rather the type ahead/autocomplete feature.

Dear List:
 
A bit off topic but...
 
My wife's new machine is running W8.1 and Office 2003.  Apparently there's
an incompatibility between 8.1 and Outlook 2003 which causes the
autocomplete in the To address bar to fail.  The names show but when you
select one it doesn't complete.
 
I've scoured the web for a solution - tries everything I found there but
nothing works. But apparently this is a known problem.  
 
The only solution would seem to be to move her up to Office 2010.  But I
don't want to do that.  She know 2003 well and would have the usual learning
curve problems.
 
Has anyone seen and solved this problem?
 
MTIA
 
Rocky
