Hi,

Autocomplete lists are stored in the protected storage section (donno exactly where). However there are some programs that can manage it for you (goole for protected storage).

If you want to excess the protected storage programaticly you should view the protected storage sdk
(http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/devnotes/winprog/pstore.asp)

Moreover, there are another article in codeproject about protected storage that includes source for the program.

Regards
Y_R

Sincerely yours
Y.R.
