Whe I start to fill in a mail address, Outlook offers me suggestions of who I might be sending to. Where does Outlook store this info?

There are a couple of addresses i want to remove from it. I can't find the addresses I want to delete in my address book

How the nickname cache is stored depends on which version of Outlook. Assuming Outlook 2002 or 2003, it's stored in a *.nk2 file. You can delete individual entries in Outlook by simply highlighting with the mouse, then pressing the delete key. If you want to delete the entire cache, just delete the .nk2 file.
 
Where od I need to highlight and delete?
I tried deleteing from the To list but that didn't work

Outlook 2003
 
When you start typing the name/address & the list of possible choices drops down. Move the cursor to the one that you want to remove - as if you were going to pick it, but instead of clicking the mouse button, press the delete key on the keyboard.
