My scenario is similar, I wanted to be able to search the
directory for entries listing a specific area code and where
the entry contained multiple values with this area code are
returned as duplicated entries.  I only want and desire any
duplicates of containing a value within the desired area
code.  (One could call this "matched" duplicated entries).
