Campy ergo lever triple to double compatibility - Daytona circa 2005

I have a bike that was built up by the PO using a mix of (lower end?) Campy of a circa 2005 vintage. The levers are marked Daytona. Derailleurs are Mirage in front & Veloce in rear. If it makes any difference, the rear is 9-speed. He used a triple crankset in front and I'd like to change it to a double. Can anyone tell me if this can be done by simply adjusting out the third set of "clicks" or will I need to rebuild/retrofit my left(front) shifter if I want to do this right?

I would think I could simply set it up to be using the lower two positions and have the range beyond that (ie, what is now the largest chainring) locked out using the derailleur limits.

If there's a good informative site that explains all this someone would kindly point me to, that would be great. Sorry if I'm asking a dumb question here & thanks in advance.
