Default Is there a way of finding all repeated names in a document?

Is there a way of finding all repeated names in a document all at once? I
know I can use the find command but I have to enter each name individually.
I am using Word 2003.

Thanks

Margot

If the document is a list, sort it into alphabetical order then search for
duplicate lines - see http://www.gmayor.com/replace_using_wildcards.htm
If not, then the answer is no.
