I use Word for Windows to create mailing labels. My list
are small-under 300 addresses. Is there a way of removing
duplicate addresses? These are not email addresses.

Hi Frank,

You will find some information on how to do this in the article "Finding and
replacing characters using wildcards" at:

http://www.mvps.org/word/FAQs/General/UsingWildcards.htm

Please post any further questions or followup to the newsgroups for the
benefit of others who may be interested. Unsolicited questions forwarded
directly to me will only be answered on a paid consulting basis.

Hope this helps
