How stop incorrect auto fill of email address

Hi,
I have about 200 addresses in the contact folder, and occasionally someone's email address is changed. When this happens
I open the contact dialog box and remove the old email address, usually the #1 address, and replace
it with the new one.
When next I do an email to that person, the auto complete fills in the old address, not the new one, and because I have "display as" names the email is bounced because it was sent to the dead address. So typing J in the to box generates John's old email address.
Is there a way to fix this?

Thank you,

cody

I too faced the problem. Check the files at “%APPDATA%\Microsoft\Outlook” in your system. Maybe, you can get some clues from there.
