Outlook cannot do this. That's why third party developers developed the
utilities in the first place. Suggest using them.

Thank you very much, but I was hoping to do this without third party
software
if at all possible.

I have a Windows XP Vaio using Outlook 2003 with SP2. Due to back up
and
reinstall issues, I now have duplicate contacts. I tried exporting to
the
desktop the pst file of contacts, deleting the contacts in outlook and
then
importing them back checking the box do not import duplicate contacts,
but
they are still there. Any ideas?
