required a macro.

Could this be done in something like OpenOffice with a macro?


If I were faced with this need today, I would export both lists to
csv format, import them into http://google.com/contacts then run the
google contacts dedupe process and export them when finished.

It still works in the current incarnation of dbase+ that I use which is FoxPro.

1. create a database called ADDRESS with fields of "NAME", "EMAIL" and "COUNT" 2. Import from various address book .csv files the variables "NAME" and "EMAIL" into database ADDRESS
3. use ADDRESS
4. Replace all count with 1
5. Index on email to email
6. set orde to email
7. Total on email to NODUPE
8. Use NODUPE
9. list name,email,count

A single instance of each email will be shown in the file NODUPE. The number of occurrences for each email will be shown in the variable COUNT which will usually be 1

10. copy to NODUPECSV type delimited with ,

11. import NODUPECSV into your mailer's address book.

I tried to find a way to do this in OpenOffice 3.2 but did not see an easy way to do it.
