Find Delete Old Contacts is another script to remove duplicate contacts. <http://scriptbuilders.net/files/finddeleteoldcontacts1.1.html>
Otherwise a visual search might find it. Is it possible there are two that are so similar that it's confusing Apple utility? The scripts depend on the info being entered correctly. I often see both first and last name in the first name field. Emails are entered with the brackets around them and/or they are entered in a phone field. Sorting by columns can help visually find a duplicate. Sort by: First Name Last Name Email address Note: First Name, Last Name columns are new to Entourage 2008 -- Diane On 8/25/09 6:28 AM, "Roger S.
