Need To Remove All Duplicate Records.
Hi
I have a data in one table like below.
EDITION PRODUCT INSERTDATE
---------- ------------ ----------------------
CNE TN-Town News 12/19/2007 12:00:00 AM
TN TN-Town News 12/19/2007 12:00:00 AM
What i have to do is if there are multiple records for one product in any day, then i need to remove all those records. In this case i am getting two records for the PRODUCT 'TN-Town News' and for INSERTDATE = 12/19/2007 . So i need to remove these two records from the table.
How to do that?. Can anybody help me?
Thanks

Remove Duplicate Entries
I am a newb at ms sql and was hoping someone could help me eliminate duplicate PRODUCT.PRODUCT from this statement. I have tried using DISTINCT with the same results.The ProductImage table is causing this because the duplicates are from the PRODUCT.PRODUCT that have more than 1 image. If anyone could rewrite this statement so I can learn from this, it would be most appreciated! Thank you for your time <asp:SqlDataSource ID="SqlDataSource3" runat="server"ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:LocalSqlServer %>"SelectCommand="SELECT Product.Product.productid,Product.Product.catid,Product.Product.name,Product.Product.smalltext,Product.Product.longtext,Product.Product.price,Product.ProductSpecial.saleprice, Product.ProductSpecial.feature,Product.ProductImage.imgId, Product.ProductImage.imgUrlFROM Product.ProductINNER JOIN Product.ProductSpecialON Product.ProductSpecial.productid = Product.Product.productidINNER JOIN Product.ProductImageON Product.Product.imgid = Product.ProductImage.imgId"></asp:SqlDataSource>

Remove Duplicate Data
I have a query that for one reason or another produces duplicate information in the result set. I have tried using DISTINCT and GROUP BY to remove the duplicates but because of the nature of the data I cannot get this to work, here is an example fo the data I am working with ID Name Add1 Add2 1 Matt 16 Nowhere St Glasgow 1 Matt 16 Nowhere St Glasgow, Scotland 2 Jim 23 Blue St G65 TX 3 Bill 45 Red St 3 Bill 45 red St London The problem is that a user can have one or more addresses!! I would like to be able to remove the duplicates by keeping the first duplicate ID that appears and getting rid of the second one. Any ideas? Cheers

Remove Duplicate Rows
Hi Folks: I'm in the process of data conversion. Before bcp to the actual table, I create another intermediate table with same record structure, different name and without any indexes,foreign key constraint .... so that I can bcp the ASCII data set into that table with no error. Now, is it possible to use one SQL statement to remove ALL DUPLICATE ROWS BUT THE LAST ONE. I meant, say that table t has 10 duplicate records on that fiel F1, I want to delete 9 of them but keep only one record only? Thanks in advance for your time and advice. David Nguyen

Faster Remove Duplicate SQL
I have a table containing over 100,000 email addresses. This email table gets duplicates in it, and our customers don't want a second (or third or fourth) copy of our news letter. To prevent this, we run the following SQL to kill the duplicates: Code Snippet DELETE FROM _email WHERE _email.eid IN ( SELECT tbl1.eid FROM _email AS tbl1 WHERE Exists ( SELECT emailaddress, Count(eid) FROM _email WHERE _email.emailaddress = tbl1.emailaddress GROUP BY _email.emailaddress HAVING Count(_email.eid) > 1 ) ) AND _email.eid NOT IN ( SELECT Min(eid) FROM _email AS tbl1 WHERE Exists ( SELECT emailaddress, Count(eid) FROM _email WHERE _email.emailaddress = tbl1.emailaddress GROUP BY _email.emailaddress HAVING Count(_email.eid) > 1 ) GROUP BY emailaddress ); This query takes about 2hrs to run which is really hurting our server preformance. Is there any way to do this faster? I am running SQL Server 2000 Thanks in advance

Filtering/Grouping To Remove Duplicate Values...
There's some SQL below (T-SQL) & I'm wanting to have this result set grouped by Venue_ID in order to remove rows where there are duplicate values contained in just one column. The columns BCOM_ID contain unique values, but Venue_ID can have duplicate values. I only want to get rows for one instance of the Venue_ID (per BCOM_ID) - doesn't matter which instance but basically, no duplicates. Oh yes, one of the columns is a Bit column. Any ideas would be welcome & appreciated! Many thanks, Darren darren@darrenbrook.fsnet.co.uk SQL:- SELECT Booking_Header.BH_ID, Booking_Header.Booking_Header_Description, Booking_Header.BStat_ID, Booking_Header.BT_ID, Booking_Header.Tagged, Booking_Header.Status_Timestamp, Booking_Header.Start_Date, Booking_Header.Days_Qty, Proposal.PPL_ID, Proposal.PPL_Status, Booking_Component.BCOM_ID, Booking_Component.Component_Description, Booking_Component.Venue_ID, Venue.Venue_Code, Venue.Description, Address.Address_ID, Address.Town, Booking_Status.BStat_Description, Booking_Type.Type_Description FROM dbo.Booking_Header INNER JOIN dbo.Proposal ON dbo.Booking_Header.BH_ID = dbo.Proposal.BH_ID INNER JOIN dbo.Booking_Component ON dbo.Proposal.PPL_ID = dbo.Booking_Component.PPL_ID INNER JOIN dbo.Venue ON dbo.Booking_Component.Venue_ID = dbo.Venue.VE_ID INNER JOIN dbo.Address ON dbo.Venue.VE_ID = dbo.Address.VE_ID INNER JOIN dbo.Booking_Status ON dbo.Booking_Header.BStat_ID = dbo.Booking_Status.BStat_ID INNER JOIN dbo.Booking_Type ON dbo.Booking_Header.BT_ID = dbo.Booking_Type.BT_ID WHERE (dbo.Proposal.PPL_Status = 1) AND (dbo.Booking_Header.BH_ID = 10) Thanks, Darren

How To Remove Blank Spaces In Records??
We imported approximately 2.9 million records from our mainframe server into our SQL Server but have run into a problem. The data in a few of the fields contains both leading and trailing spaces. An example of the data would be like this, using periods to represent spaces: What we have: ..1A02938..... What we need: 1A02938 (no spaces) Is there some sort of algorithm I can run on the data to remove those spaces? The problem is coming up when trying to perform a SELECT query. We try something like: SELECT * FROM PCPIPT0 WHERE PANO20 = "1A02938" but we get zero results because of the spaces in the database. The datatype of the filed is char(20) because we need some flexibility on the size of the data stored. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Remove And Archive Records Into Another Table
Hi, I currently have one table that lists all projects and tasks within the organisation. One of the table fields is the task status, open or closed. I would like to be able to have a process by which the tasks that are completed are removed from the table and placed into another (archive) table. The same records then being removed from the original table. which then only contains the incomplete tasks. This process could be run at given times during the day or at the point when the status of a task is changed from open to closed, either way each time the process is run it would need to append the rows removed into the archive table. Anyone any ideas on the best way to do this?. Thanks

Duplicate Records
Yes, I know this subject has been exhausted, but I need help in locating the discussion which took place a few months ago. Sharon relayed to the group a piece of software (expensive) which would help in my particular situation. I grabbed a demo and have gotten the approval for purchase. Unfortunately, I don't have the thread with me at work. The problem: Number Fname Lname Age ID 123 John Franklin 43 1 123 Jane Franklin 40 2 123 Jeff Franklin 12 3 124 Jean Simmons 39 4 125 Gary Bender 37 5 126 Fred Johnson 29 6 126 Fred Johnson 39 7 127 Gene Simmons 47 8 The idea would be to get only unique records from the Number column. I don't care about which information I grab from the other columns, but I must have those fields included. If my resultant result set looked as follows, that would be fine. Or any other way, as long as all of the fields had information and there were only unique values in the Number field. Number Fname Lname Age ID 123 Jeff Franklin 12 3 124 Jean Simmons 39 4 125 Gary Bender 37 5 126 Fred Johnson 39 7 127 Gene Simmons 47 8 If anyone remembers this discussion, mainly the date, I would really appreciate it.

I'm trying to create a query that will return specific fields from the table that contains orders in the linked order table, and only the work orders in the all order table that (work_order) do not exist in the linked order table (demand_supply_link).

Duplicate Records
Hi, Not so sure how simple this question is but here is what happened. I installed SQL Server 2005 on a new Win Server 2003. I exported the tables and their data from the old machine to the newly established database on the new machine. It looks like all my records were duplicated. When I try to delete one of the duplicates it won't work because both rows are effected. I can't set my primary key now and if I try to create a new database with the primary key already set than the import fails. Any one run into this before or know what's going on? Any help ASAP would really be appreciated. Thanks, Alice

Records Duplicate When Edited...?
Hi,I have written a web application using dreamweaver MX, asp.net, and MSsql server 2005.The problem I am having occurs when I attempt to edit a record. I have setup a datagrid with freeform fields so that the user can click on edit, make the required changes within the data grid then click update. The data is then saved to the database. All this was created using dreameaver and most of the code was automatically generated for me.The problem is that, not everytime, but sometimes when I go to edit a record once I hit the update button to save the changes the record is duplicated 1 or more times. This doesnt happen everytime but when it does it duplicates the record between 1 and about 5 times. I have double checked everything but cannot find anything obvious that may be causing this issue. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I should look for? Is this a coding error or something wrong with MSsql? Any ideas?Thanks in advance-Mitch
