Deleting multiple contacts on Blackberry 8700v

Hi there, I have just taken over my mates Blackberry and want to delete his contacts before adding mine from Outlook. As he has over 1200 contacts, deleting them one at a time is very time consuming and there must be a shortcut.
Can someone help please? I have looked all over the internet but cannot find any help on this issue.
Many thanks

How can I delete multiple contacts at one time?

Ok, here was the fix. I found that the date added was 18 minutes apart for the duplicates. Since half the music was added at :19 and half was added at :37, I sorted by date added in the display duplicates window, and deleted the music by date! It took 5 minutes. I know enough to get me in and out of trouble, and that's all I know!

How do I delete multiple contacts from address book?

Hello,
I have been using Macs for well over a decade. As a result my Address Book has become crowded with a large number of contacts for people I don't know anymore, most of which are out of date anyways.
Is there a way to quickly delete multiple contacts? I think I have about 100 contacts to delete. Doing them all manually will take forever.
Thanks!

I assume that this will work, but I thought my first suggestion would work so ....Log into iCloud.com on your computer. Click on contacts. Click on the settings icon in the lower left corner - then click on Select All - then click on Delete.

You can't from the phone.
If they are iCloud contacts you can sign into iCloud.com with Your Apple ID from a web browser on your computer. Click Contacts, select the contacts you want to delete, click the gear icon on the bottom left then delete.

Trying to delete multiple contacts at once on iPhone

I wanted a large (~200) subset of my contacts (within Outlook) to be added to my iPhone, so I used the iTunes Contact Sync to get all of my contacts there (rather than type in 200 with the iPhone keyboard, which leaves something to be desired). Now I have all of my contacts on the iPhone, but only want the 200 or so.
Is there an easy way to select a group or multiple contacts and mark them for deletion? Right now it appears as if I need to go through one by one, which will NOT work for me.
thanks.

There is no such option with the iPhone.
