Export contacts from Outlook for Windows. Create and edit a Contact Group formerly distribution lists. Add or remove an address book. You have two options to resolve duplicate contacts in the Duplicate Contact Detected dialog box:. Add a duplicate as a new contact The new contact will be added to your Contacts folder. For example, if you create a contact with the name Judy Lew, and you already have a contact with that name in your Contacts folder, you will have two contacts named Judy Lew.
To distinguish between the two, you can add a middle initial to one. Tip: Displaying your contacts as Electronic Business Cards is a good choice of views in which to see enough information to distinguish contacts with duplicate names.
Update new information from a duplicate contact to an existing one Outlook will compare all the fields that contain data in both the duplicate and existing contacts and copy the data from the duplicate contact into any fields in the existing contact that have conflicting data. For example, if you have a contact named Judy Lew with the phone number , and you get a duplicate contact with a new phone number, Outlook will copy the new number into the appropriate field in the existing contact and leave all the other fields the same.
The color categories that you assign to the new contact and the text in the message from the new contact will not be copied into the existing contact. If you want to copy this information, you must do so manually. Certificates and links to contacts on the Activities tab will be copied from the duplicate contact and added to the existing contact without replacing the original information.
