Default Duplicate entries

I am merging multiple mailing lists and need to find duplicate records that
have the same name but may have a different address. I know how to delete
duplicate entries by using the Unique records only filter, but am not sure
how to go about finding what I need.

Default Duplicate entries

Hi Brenda,you can try a pivot table. In the pivot table layout drag the Name
button to the ROW area and drag the Address button to the DATA area and do a
count on the address. If you have never used a pivot table before, the
wizard will guide you through it.
