How can I do a global find & replace in Outlook?

J

I have a number of contacts at the same company, which has changed ownership,
and hence name and email domain. In Outlook 2003, is there any way to do a
global search & replace on the company name and email domain for all of these
contacts?

Display your contacts in the By Category view and then group by Company
name. Change one contact to be in the company you want, which will add that
company as a group. Select all the contacts in the old company group and
drag them to the new company group.

That sorts out the company name, but not the email addresses...
