 +I have tested this in Outlook 2013 and it worked.  The instructions are for Outlook 2010.  The Export option below was also successful though more involved.

 +
 +For Outlook 2010
 +1. Open the start menu on the PC/Profile you are getting old autocomplete info from and type in:
 +
 +C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Outlook\RoamCache
 +
 +2. The Auto Complete file starts with Stream_Autocomplete and ends in .dat with a string of alpha numeric in between.
 +
 +3. Pay careful attention to the dates these were last edited. The correct Stream_Autocomplete file will have the most recent date. Copy the file from the old autocomplete PC/Profile. 
 +
 +5. On the new PC/Profile rename the Stream_Autocomplete file to Stream_Autocomplete....dat.old.  
 +
 +4. Copy the new  Stream_Autocomplete file to the same location on the new PC/Profile.
 +
 +6. Copy the old Stream_Autocomlete unique alpha numeric string "filename" From S up to .dat and replace the new one with that name. 
 +
 +Now you should be able to open Outlook with all of your autocomplete data.
 +
 +===Option 2 requiring export===
  
 :!: Outlook 2010 doesn't store autocomplete suggestions in .NK2 files like older versions of Outlook. It stores the info in a hidden record in the PST file. :!: Outlook 2010 doesn't store autocomplete suggestions in .NK2 files like older versions of Outlook.
