User Defined Fileds In An Item (Contact) - Deleting

S

srm

I'm using OXP. Is there a way to delete the "User Defined Fields In a Item
(Contact)" without having to open each contact, going to the All fields page
and manually deleting the fields. I'm using the "User Defined Fields In A
Folder" and want to remove the fields saved in a contact that are not
required.

No. Even with code you'd have to open (instantiate) each item and
delete the fields. Once they are in the item it doesn't matter if the
field is removed from the folder, the field is still in each item.

Thanks. I didn't think so but thought I would ask.
