Yeah, apparently it's a W8.1 problem but I was hoping against hope to find a
fix.

Sorry, not really any help but I run both Office 2003 and 2010, on the same
machine and they both appear to work right...haven't honestly tested
Outlook, or even used an desktop mail client, in the last couple of years
but could test it if you like.

The OS is different of course.

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
