It may not seem so, but this isn't an easy question to answer.
Quicken has no such animal, because, I think, only the user,
looking at their own data, can tell which transactions are truly
duplicates. And, because Quicken tries not to allow the same
transaction to download more than once.
If you know what range of transaction dates the duplicates
occurred within, you could create a Banking (or Cash Flow)
Transaction report selecting on that date range and sorting by
date. If you you've never modified the transaction dates, this
would at least put any duplicates in close proximity to one
another and easier to spot.
[You could also try to syncronize this with printed statements
from your fi, to help determine which transactions don't
belong.]
And as an added benefit (if you have a Quicken version newer
than Q2005, or maybe Q2006), you can initiate the delete of
selected transactions from the Banking Transaction report. That
is: you can use Windows Explorer selection techniques to select
multiple transactions in the Banking Transaction report, then
click Edit (in the report), and tell Quicken to delete all the
selected transactions at once.
