I am not a good typist, and I appreciate The "Auto Complete" feature
in  in my Browser. The trouble is that it has grown to such lenghths
that it's becoming cumbersome; especially with misspelled words.
Please give us a safe way to locate the database, display it's
contents in a 'Reader-Friendly' fashion, and the capability to edit
safely.
Thanks

Hi _nick_at_nite_-ga,

I've searched around a bit and it appears that while IE does store the
data, it is encrypted in the registry.  While there's no known way of
modifying the entries, however, you can delete them.  When the
autocomplete drop-down list appears, simply highlight the entry and
hit the Delete key.  The bad part of this is that you can only delete
the entries for that particular form.

Regards,
mrbuzz-ga
