When I HotSync my Palm device, I receive the message
below.

    ERROR: 00001029
    There are two categories with the same (case-
insensitive) name <Business>. Each category must have a
unique spelling.

    412: HHCategory
    948: BaseConduit

I've reset my master category list to the default, as
well as tried copying the "Business" contact from the
first contact in this category to every other (several
hundred). I still receive this error.

Is there a way to identify which of my contacts contain
the duplicate category name? If I could do this, I could
delete and recreate that contact(s).

Thank you.

Have you switched your view of the Contacts folder to By Category so that
each category is grouped? That should make it easier to find.
