How to clean Autocomplete file (NK2) in OL 2002

Hi everybody. I know how to clean manually the Autocomplete File in OL2002. The procedure tha directs erase the NK2 file is fine for me in some cases. However, in some cases isn't possible to find out that file. In every case, I want to be able to run the clean process in an automatic way.

Greetings, goltrek !

Autocomplete data is found in .NK2 file.  The data is not stored anywhere else. So you have to find the .NK2 file and delete it.  

.NK2 is normally located in C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook folder. It is a hidden file, so you have to unhide the file to see it. Open Windows Explorer folder and select Tools > Folders Options > View. Check "Show hidden files and folders". Click OK.

Best wishes!
