The EndNote Find Duplicates is virtually useless for me.  It requires a match
of author, year and title.  In my field (chemistry) and many others I suspect,
the title is often not entered the same from source to source, especially if
from an on line source such as Current Contents.  I would find match of
volume, year, and first page the most useful.  Journal and author are also
sometimes variable depending upon the source. I realize this doesn't
handle books well, but in my area books are the exception anyway.
