Check out this website http://www.lbetoolbox.com/index.htm?ref=otoolbox they
have Toolbox for Outlook that not only can delete duplicate emails, contacts
and appointments but also put all your contacts in Proper Name format.

Hi Ian
Outlook really doesn't provide any way that I know of doing this
automatically. I've always had to do it manually.
Two ways I've found that *sort* of make it easier.
1. Go to the View menu and choose Current View>Phone List. This lists
them all in a grid which makes it easier to find and delete the
duplicates.
Or 2. Export the whole contact list to an Excel file. Then delete them
all from Outlook. Then import them back into Outlook from Excel and put
a check in the box in the Import Wizard that says do not allow
duplicates (but this will obviously only find exact duplicates)
Sorry...this is the best way I have come up with to do this.
Maybe somebody else knows a better way. Good luck!

This is a query about Outlook. I have Office 2000 and have a couple of
thousand contacts. Because of a link up with a Psion palmtop many of
these are duplicates. Other than a long manual deletion of the
duplicates is there any other way to get rid of them?
Suggestions appreciated!
Regards
Ian Elliott
