The code I'm using is not pretty but it works - I'll try to refine it.

Thanks guys,

I ended up using a mixture of all the ideas, I wanted to show all records with duplicate email addresses so the user can then decide which one to delete.  The code I'm using is not pretty but it works - I'll try to refine it.  

The first search sets up a table with the email duplicates - but this doesn't include the initial email that the comparison is based on.  The second search goes through this table and summarises the email field - the final search searches the original database to ensure that all records with duplicate emails are shown.

Its taking a couple of seconds to go through a list of about 9000 records.
