Default Pulling in unique items in a drop down box

The following code pulls in the company names of the people listed in our
contact list.

Obviously we have more than one person for each company, so the list shows
the company name more than once.

Is there a way of filtering and returning one entry person company?

Thank you.

Richard

Set MyContacts =
Application.GetNameSpace("MAPI").GetDefaultFolder( olFolderContacts)
Set MyItems = MyContacts.Items
Set RestrictedContactItems = MyItems.Restrict("[Company] ''")
'Sort by Company in ascending order
RestrictedContactItems.Sort "[Company]"
For Each MyItem in RestrictedContactItems
cmbContacts.AddItem MyItem.CompanyName
Next
IsLoading = True
cmbContacts.ListIndex = 0
IsLoading = False
