pc_capture85 Paul (MVP) over at MoDaCo has just created a cool little application for removing your duplicate contacts! This is pretty cool as I hated doing the PC Sort and Delete trick that I posted here:

http://tiltsite.com/2008/03/get-rid-of-duplicate-contacts-in-outlook/

I just tried this on my Tilt and it found 3 duplicates. Hmmmm. I wish it would have shown them so I could see what they were. Well they are gone now. Anyway, the price is right at $0.00. Yup FREE! So thanky kindly Paul for a much easier way of deleting duplicate contacts for free! Check out the details below and the .cab download link:

This is a very very very simple application for WM5+ PPC / SP (CF2.0) I rustled up in response to a need to remove duplicate contacts on a device.
It is an EXE only (copy to your device and run), which has a basic GUI which allows you to scan for duplicates, and then choose (after being told your duplicate count) whether to remove them. Contacts are compared based on ‘File As’, field, ‘Email’ field and ‘Home / Work / Mobile’ phone fields. If all those fields match, it’s deemed a duplicate.
The application scans my ~200 contacts in under 2 seconds smile.gif
Hope this is useful to someone!

PS If you think it’s worthy of me cabbing up, or extending to Calendar support etc., let me know!
[Edit: Now available by request in CAB form with AppToDate support without registration required for download: http://www.apptodate.org/dupededupe.cab]

Thanks again Paul! But could you include an icon in your next revision?
