I want to change a company name that has loads of contacts within it. Can I
do this without changing them one at a time?

yes. not so hard if you know how.....

change to the By Company View of the Contacts folder

edit 1 contact to have the new company name
select and drag all the others you want to change into the group of the new
company name.
done.
