This is the down side of importing contacts from different sources, no system I have ever used has even been good, much less great, at avoiding duplicates.
ill give that a try. i actually dont use outlook at all. i have 2 email accounts i use, hotmail and gmail but i just goto the website to view my emails. i'll set it up and see what happens.

for being, what i would consider, a common problem you would think someone has come up with a solution... thanks for the info guys.
