Outlook can find emails with one or more attachments by specifying the “Has Attachments” option. But how can I search for a specific type of attached file? Search for emails having.docx,.pdf,.xlsx or.zip files etc. Is it also possible to only search for text within an attachment and not within the message body? In short, to search for a specific type, you can type the following search command ext: manually in the Search field. ext:docx. ext:pdf.
AutoSave is a different feature which automatically saves your file as you work - just like if you save the file manually - so that you don't have to worry about saving on the go. On the Mac, AutoSave is available in Excel, Word, and PowerPoint for Office 365 subscribers. When AutoSave is turned on AutoRecover files are rarely needed. Translator for Outlook is an add-in that translates email message text on the fly. The translation is immediate and is displayed next to the reading pane in your mailbox. When you install the add-in, you're asked for your Office 365 or Outlook.com email address and password.
ext:xlsx. ext:pptx. ext:zip To limit your search to text within an attachment, you can use the attachment: search command. attachment:outlook.
attachment:(my search words) You can also combine these commands and search for specific words inside docx attachments;. attachment:(my search words) ext:docx With these two search commands, you can also do quite some advanced things to further optimize your search results if needed as shown in the examples below.
A short but effective search command.
%localappdata% Microsoft Outlook RoamCache You can use a utility to extract the addresses from the auto-complete stream and insert them into the new auto-complete stream. Or you could rename the.dat file with the name of the new.dat file, however, because the auto-complete tends to corrupt easily, make sure you export the addresses to a CSV file first, otherwise you might lose the addresses. In Outlook 2007, the autocomplete list is stored in a file with the extension NK2. If you are moving from Outlook 2003 or 2007, you'll need to import the NK2. When you upgrade in place, the NK2 should be imported automatically. If you get a new computer, copy it to the same location on the new computer and start Outlook using the /importnk2 switch.

Diane, After dealing with this in Outlook 2016 for a few months, I've come to the conclusion the file isn't getting corrupted but it has another copy inside the PST file. I can't find any Microsoft information on this but I didn't look too hard, what I really want is an explanation of what happens with this file. I've had very inconsistent results, but let me detail some of the issues: So if I'm doing the rename trick I always make a copy of the source, because as you noted it sometimes gets 'corrupted' or plain reverted back to the almost empty list. With outlook open, adding an entry (my email) initially starts the autocomplete list, however it doesn't make the roamcache file until I close outlook. If I then replace it with a 'completed' copy it may initially work but when I close outlook again it writes back the nearly empty copy.

With nk2edit I get similar results, modify the file with outlook closed, open outlook it seems to work, close outlook and the changes I've made revert back to the old copy. Then on most occasions it works first try, but when it doesn't work it's very aggravating.
