Check For Duplicate Entries In One Field
Oct 17, 2005
Obviously, I'm a complete n00b at SQL.
I have a table in Access 2003 with about 6,000 records and there are about 20 records that have duplicate data in the first field (CompID).
I'm trying to make the first field my primary key, so I need to fix these duplicate entry.
I could export to Excel and fix the problem that way, but in the interest of learning SQL I want to figure out how to do it properly.
Thanks in advance for what is hopefully a simple answer.

I have a field called RegId. RegId is of datatype NVARCHAR (20).
RegId
-----
12322
2122111
23423
etc
etc
I want to run a query to find out if there are duplicate entries in this field.
Any ideas on how I can achieve this?
Thanks in advance,
Anthony

Hi All !
Below is a snippet of MS SQL inside ASP that retieves
Commodity info such as product names and related information and returns the results in an ASP Page. My problem is that with certain searches, elements returned in the synonym field repeat. For instance, on a correct search I get back green, red, blue, and yellow which is correct. On another similar search different commodity say for material, I get Plastic, Glass,Sand - Plastic, Glass,Sand - Plastic Glass Sand. I want to remove the repeating elements returned in this field. I hope this makes sense.
PS I tried to use distinct but with no luck I want just one of each in the example below.
Thanks in Advance!

I'm extracting data from a log (log_history) of patients where nurses perform various actions on a call, such as assessing and reassessing, despatching etc. This is the script:
Select
L.URN,
LH.THE_TIMESTAMP,
LH.ACTION_TYPE,
LH.ACTION_BY,
LH.ACTION_REQD,
LH.NOTE,
em.position_type_ref
From
LOG L
Join Log_history LH on (L.URN = LH.LOG_URN)
left outer join employee em on (em.code = LH.action_by)
Where
(L.Taken_at >= :DateFrom and L.Taken_at <= :DateTo) and (LH.ACTION_TYPE = 'D') and (em.position_type_ref ='NU')
Order By
L.URN ASC, LH.THE_TIMESTAMP DESC
The result I get shows duplicate 'timestamp' entries and I only want to return unique timestamp entries. Does anyone have any ideas. I'm self taught and have hit a wall

I have an application that allows the user to enter data into a table. There are multiple users so I put in some code that, I thought, would keep 2 users from creating a new record at the same time. The IDs for the records are identical and this is causing a problem.
The IDs are in the format of ####-mmyy. at the start of each month the #### part goes back to 1.
We tried a test today where we had 2 users click on the New button at exactly the same time. The IDs that were created were identical. Is there anyway on the database that I can prevent this from happening?
Here is how I create the new record id:
I get the MAX(ID) from the table
I add 1 to the ID and then insert a new record with the new ID into the table.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
enak

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

Hi.
I have a table with Login and Logoff Time of users, but there could be duplicate Logtimes in the dataset, but for
different products. Because of this I cant do a distinct in the dataset. I need the Product and some other details in my Report.
I tried to make two datasets. One for the Select distinct and one for the other.
But the Problem is:
in my report, I need a table, where I make the Sum of the Logintime a day and in another column I calculate with data from the other dataset.(Logtime + data from dataset2). But this doesnt work, so I think, that is it not possible to join 2 dataset in one table.
datetime Login | datetime Logout | Product

Is there another option I can do this?

I have an ASP.Net Web appplication with a Back-End SQL DB. There are 3 Tables; Users, Groups, and GroupMember.
The GroupMember table is used to link Users to Groups and consists of just two fields; userID and GroupID.
Here is a sample of some data:
User1 Group1
User1 Group2
User2 Group2
User3 Group1
User3 Group3
Users can belong to multiple Groups. However, you shouldn't be able to have the same user and group comobination more than once. for example:
User1 Group1
User2 Group2
User1 Group1
I can stop this kind of duplicate data entry by doing a lookup first (using asp.net) to see if the entry already exists but this seems cumbersome.
Is there a simpler way to prevent duplicate entries in a table using sql?
Thanks a lot,
Chris

Hi all.. I've been scouring the forums for about 6 hours to no
avail. This is a really simple question. I'm trying to have
a registration page that lets the user input name, email, desired
username, and password. I want to check the username and email
fields to make sure ppl cannot sign up twice. So from what I've
gathered I have a couple of options:
1) i can set up a unique constraint on the database columns,
2) i can run a select statement before inserting,
3) i can store the whole database column in a variable then search through it.
My question is how to do option 2? All of my transactions are through a sqldatasource object in c#.

Yet another simple query that is eluding me. I need to find records in a table that have the same first name and last name. Because the table has a primaty key, these people were entered twice or they share the same first and last name.
How could you query this:
ID fname lname
10001 Bill Jones
10002 Joe Smith
10003 Sue Jenkins
10004 John Sanders
10005 Joe Smith
10006 Harrold Simpson
10007 Sue Jenkins
10008 Sam Worden
and get a result set of this:
ID fname lname
10002 Joe Smith
10005 Joe Smith
10003 Sue Jenkins
10007 Sue Jenkins

Hi I am trying to insert entries in a table which has a composite primary key and i am inserting it on UID basis.
INSERT INTO TABLE_B (TABLE_B_UID,NUM_MIN, NUM_MAX,BIN, REGN_CD, PROD_CD, CARD)
(SELECT UID,LEFT(NUM_MIN,16),LEFT(NUM_MAX,16),BIN, REGN_CD, PROD_CD, CARD FROM TABLE_A WHERE UID NOT IN (SELECT TABLE_B_UID FROM TABLE B))
When i insert it tries to insert a duplicate entries and gives me an error. Since I am new to SQL SERVER 2000 i need some help. I tried IF NOT EXISTS, EXCEPT but i guess i am wrong at the syntax.

I have a database being populated by hits to a program on a server.The problem is each client connection may require a few hits in a 1-2second time frame. This is resulting in multiple database entries -all exactly the same, except the event_id field, which isauto-numbered.I need a way to query the record w/out duplicates. That is, anyrecords exactly the same except event_id should only return one record.Is this possible??Thank you,Barry

Here is my situation. I have a table in my application that pairs users with cars they like. We'll call this table Favorites. A user can browse the site and they can designate as many cars they want as favorites. For example, a user can go to the Honda Accord page and add that as a favorite car and then go to the Toyota Camry page and add that as a favorite car. However, if he/she goes to that Honda Accord page and tries to click the "Add to Favorites" button again, at the present state of my application, it will just add another entry into the Favorites table with a duplicate pairing. So, if I were to datalist the table to generate a listing of all favorites belonging to a certain user, he/she may potentially be returned with superfluous duplicate entries. Not to mention, taking up valuable database space and not looking very professional.
In my Favorites table, the 3 fields are.....favoriteId (set as primary key)userIdcarId
I've been thinking about this for awhile and I've come up with 2 solutions. I'm a newbie to ASP.NET/programming so I don't have enough insight to make a decision or to even think up of other alternatives.
1) Check proactively by doing a.....SELECT favoriteID FROM Favorites WHERE userId = x and carId = y (where x and y are variables)If I get a null return, it means I can go ahead and let the user add the car as a favorite in the database. If I get a valid value, then it means there already exists the same pairing, so I exit out without updating the table.
2) Check reactively by forcing an exception whenever a user tries to enter a duplicate pairing. I'm not sure how to do this, but perhaps, instead of making "favoriteId" a primary key, perhaps, I can make a primary key pairing of "userId" and "carId". And by trying to do an insert with a primary key that already exists, we know it won't work since primary keys by definition are unique.
Now, I expect some concurrent users on my site, so I must take into consideration pros and cons of each and determine which is more efficient. Checking proactively will force a check even if the table does not contain a duplicate pairing of user and car. However, having a duplicate primary key may be more expensive from a database point of view and may slow down lookups, etc. Or maybe neither has significant benefits, in which case, I rather go with proactive, since I've already coded it and it works fine. Or maybe there is a third alternative, which I did not think. Which method do programmers usually take and which is a better practice?
TIA for your help.

Someone ran an update statement multiple times so their are multiple entries in the table. What is the quickest way to track down the multiple entries? I would only want to see where timein and timeoff exist in the table multiple times for the same id. So this would be a duplicate

If they are the same, I wouldlike to output them.For example, "20th Century" and "20th Century Fox" in the companyfield would be the same.How do I do this? Do I need to use a cursor? Is it as simple as using"Like?"

I am using Sql Server 2000.
I have a customer table with fields - CustId, Name, Address, City, StdCode, Phone.
I used to insert entries in this table from an excel file.
One excel file will contain thousands of customer.
In this table combination of StdCode and Phone should not be repeated.
If I do it in my VB.Net coding.then application gets drastically slow.
So I want to write a procedure or trigger for this.
Here what I will do, I will send all records into database then this trigger or procedure will check for
any existing entry of combination of StdCode and phone. If entry exists then this will delete new entry
or will not allow this new entry.
Is this possible to do using Trigger or stored procedure?

Hello Everyone:
I am using the Import/Export wizard to import data from an ODBC data source. This can only be done from a query to specify the data to transfer.
When I try to create the tables, for the query, I am getting the following error:
Msg 2714, Level 16, State 4, Line 12
There is already an object named 'UserID' in the database.
Msg 1750, Level 16, State 0, Line 12
Could not create constraint. See previous errors.
I have duplicated this error with the following script:
USE [testing]
IF OBJECT_ID ('[testing].[dbo].[users1]', 'U') IS NOT NULL
DROP TABLE [testing].[dbo].[users1]
CREATE TABLE [testing].[dbo].[users1] (
[UserID] bigint NOT NULL,
[Name] nvarchar(25) NULL,
CONSTRAINT [UserID] PRIMARY KEY (UserID)
)
IF OBJECT_ID ('[testing].[dbo].[users2]', 'U') IS NOT NULL
DROP TABLE [testing].[dbo].[users2]
CREATE TABLE [testing].[dbo].[users2] (
[UserID] bigint NOT NULL,
[Name] nvarchar(25) NULL,
CONSTRAINT [UserID] PRIMARY KEY (UserID)
)
IF OBJECT_ID ('[testing].[dbo].[users3]', 'U') IS NOT NULL
DROP TABLE [testing].[dbo].[users3]
CREATE TABLE [testing].[dbo].[users3] (
[UserID] bigint NOT NULL,
[Name] nvarchar(25) NULL,
CONSTRAINT [UserID] PRIMARY KEY (UserID)
)
I have searched the "2714 duplicate error msg," but have found references to duplicate table names, rather than multiple field names or column name duplicate errors, within a database.
I think that the schema is only allowing a single UserID primary key.
How do I fix this?
TIA

What I am trying to do is this. I have two tables that someone else created and now I have to fix there mess. Both tables have 3 like fields. I want to check and see if the ProjectNumber field from the Artifacts table does not find a match in the Projects table. If no match is found return the record from artifacts table.
Code:
SELECT *
FROM Artifacts INNER JOIN Project ON Artifacts.ProjectNumber = Project.ProjectNumber
WHERE Artifacts.ProjectNumber NOT IN (Project.ProjectNumber);
The next thing I have to do is insert a record of the three fields from the Artifacts table to the Projects table. Any help would be great.

Hi,
Does anyone have any sugestions as to the best way to achieve the following?
I want to display a list of products in a GridView. Against each product I want to place a button which will add the product to a "wish list" table.
I need to be able to check that the product has not already been inserted into the wish list.
Either suggested methods or links to tutorials will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Good morning all,
I have been tasked with an interesting problem using SQL 2005. Simplified it looks like this: I have two tables both well over a million rows, totalling unrelated keys between the tables. I need to find records in table one that do not exist in table two, the twist is this, I need to find rows where the invoice number in table 1 does not exist at all in table 2 or where the invoice number exists but the timestamp associated with the invoice in table 2 is more than 10secs different than the invoice/timestamp in table 1. I'm fairly new to sql and, although I can do the really simple stuff, this one is over my head I'm afraid. Any help at all would be greatly appreciated. I would also like to hear any suggestions regarding books that might give examples of sql code at around this level of difficulty. Thanks in advance for your assistance! Paul

Using SSE 2012 64-bit...How can I check all fields for duplicate records?I tried OVER PARTITION..But that is returning an error message
Code:
USE db
SELECT ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY all fields)
ORDER BY ID --Not unique) AS RowNumber
The text, ntext, and image data types cannot be compared or sorted, except when using IS NULL or LIKE operator

Hi,I need to enforce that a table does not have "duplicates" for aspecific status type in the table.If the column "STATUS" = 2, then there can not be more than one rowwith a specific "ID" column.I can not use a unique key constraint because duplicate values for thiscombo of columns is valid for the status = 1.Just when the status = 2, there can not be any other rows with the sameID and status = 2.Any ideas?-Paul

Hi,
in table aspnet_membership of ASPNETDB.mdb file, i saw a kind of duplicate field like "LoweredEmail" containing the same value as field "Email" (also in table users field "LoweredUsername" ..).
I guess it's for containing email in lowercase, but why those fields?
Thanks

If I wanted to search for Jobs as a particular status (e.g. 0130) and wanted to keep the jobs at this status until it has reached 0500, 0125, or 0900 in it's subsequent status log entry, how can I write the SQL for it to achieve it?
I have the following SQL which searches for the Jobs at 0130, but don't know how to develop it further to search on the requirement above.
------ SQL -------
SELECT
job.job_number,
(SELECT MAX(jsl.job_log_number)
FROM job_status_log jsl
WHERE
job.job_number = jsl.job_number AND
jsl.status_code = '0130') as Last_Early_Warning_Status_Entry
[code].....
In the job_status_log table above, there is a job_log_number field which increments by 1 when there is a new status log entry.
