Just got a call from a friend who has a small company. His dialemma is that
he has two computers with multiple contacts folders (previous employees) and
would like to consolidate them into one. I believe both machines are
running Outlook 2003. There are bound to be many near duplicates (variances
in contact notes, etc.) which will take forever to separate manually. Is
there anyway that two or three duplicates can be consolidated into one but
that would just simply add all the notes? That would probably create some
duplication in a lot of the notes, but people could sort through those one
by one. There's probably two thousand contacts. Oh, also low to no budget
for fancy software, but if it can prove rapid results, I can pitch it to him
in my meeting tomorrow. Free would be better. Good tutorials, etc. TIA!
