T-SQL (SS2K8) :: Rank Duplicates But Only Rows Involved In Duplicates?
Oct 22, 2014I have a table with 22 million Business records. I can see that there are duplicates when I group by BusinessName and Address and Phone. I'd like to place only the duplicates into a table, with a ranking, oldest business key gets a ranking of 1.
As a bonus I'd like each group to have a distinct group name (although not necessary, just want to know how to do this)
Later after I run more verifications to make sure these are not referenced elsewhere I'll delete everything with a matchRank > 1 out of the main Business table.
DROP TABLE [dbo].[TestBusiness];
GO
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[TestBusiness](
[Business_pk] INT IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[BusinessName] VARCHAR (200) NOT NULL,
[Address] VARCHAR(MAX) NOT NULL,
[code]....

Identifying Duplicates - Find Where 2 Or More Records Have Same Rank
Sep 26, 2014I have this query below that I created to do a count, but I don't think this is what I needed.
I need to find the duplicates. Example, if
CLI_ID1 12345 has 4 CLIP records, each CLIP record should have a different CLIP rank. I need to find scenarios where 2 (or more) of the CLIP records have the same CLIP RANK. If there are duplicate CLIP_RANKs within the same CLI_ID,
Select Distinct
cli_id1, count(clip_rank) countrank
FROM impact.dbo.CLI
LEFT JOIN impact.dbo.CLIO ON CLI.CLI_ID1 = CLIO.clio_id1
left join
impact.dbo.clip ON cli_id1 = clip_id1
Where (clio_trm = '' or clio_trm = NULL or clio_trm is null)
group by cli_id1
order by cli_id1

Transact SQL :: Comparing Records - Finding Matches / Duplicates
Nov 20, 2015I have this 40,000,000 rows table... I am trying to clean this 'Contacts' table since I know there are a lot of duplicates.
At first, I wanted to get a count of how many there are.
I need to compare records where these fields are matched:
MATCHED: (email, firstname) but not MATCH: (lastname, phone, mobile).
MATCHED: (email, firstname, mobile)
But not MATCH: (lastname, phone)
MATCHED: (email, firstname, lastname)
But not MATCH: (phone, mobile)
Duplicates Again! UNION Join - Remove Records With Column Diff.
Sep 9, 2004Hello All,
We all were new at one point.... any help is appreciated.
Objective:
Combining two 49,000 row tables and remove records where there is only 1 column difference. (keeping the specified column value removing the one with a blank.)
Reason:
I have 2 people going through a list, coding a specific column with a single letter value. They both have different progress on each sheet. Hence I am trying to UNION them and have a result of their combined efforts without duplicates.
My progress/where I'm stuck:
Here is my first query/union:
SELECT * FROM [Eds table]
UNION SELECT * FROM [Vickis table];
As shown above, I have unioned these 2 tables and my results removed th obvious whole record duplicates, but since 1 column is different on these, a union without criteria considers them unique.....
an example of duplicates that I must remove are as follows:
142301 - Product 5000 - 150# - S (Keep)
142031 - Product 5000 - 150# - "" <--- Blank (Remove)
I am trying to run another query on my first query results so I don't mess my first query up. Here it is:
SELECT DISTINCT [Prod #], [Prod Name], [Prod Description], [Product Type]
FROM [Combined Tables]
WHERE [Product Type]<>" ";
Please Help! Thank you in advance.

How To Number Records / Duplicates Receiving Same Number
Feb 19, 2013I have a large table of customers. I would like to add a column that contains an integer, unique to that customer. The trick is that this file contains many duplicate customers, so I want the duplicates to all have the same number between them.the numbers dont have to be sequential or anything, just like customers having the same one.

Mar 2, 2006I need some help.
I have created a database that looks like the following:
FirstName Table link to Main Table.
I have created a Stored procedure that looks like this:
Create procedure dbo.StoredProcedure
(
@FirstName varchar(20)
)
Declare FirstNameID int
Insert Into Main Table
(
FirstName
)
Values
(
@FirstName
)
Select @FirstNameID = Scope_Identity()
How could I redesign this to check if a value exists and if it exists then simply use that value instead of creating a new duplicate value?
Thanks!!
Getting Rid Of Duplicates
Jun 27, 2001I have a dilema..... I have a databas eof about 60,000 users and i need to get rid of those users where there is a duplicate email address. I have written an asp utilty that works but is far too taxing on our little server and i thinkk itwill kill it. what it does is for each email address it compares it against all the others.... so for each address it checks against 60,000 other records 60,000 times.... you know what i mean. its pretty phucked.... i tested it on just one record and took about 5mins.
anyway ive been trying to do it in SQL with no luck
here is a simplified version of my dilema
*****
NAMEEMAILAGE
tomtom@mail23
tombomb tom@mail23
petepete@email23
davecool@mail21
stevesteve@mail17
marycool@mail89
thomas tom@mail13
richrich@mail65
richdick@mail65
tomtom@mail23
tomtom@mail23
so what i want to do is cut it down so there are no duplicate email addresses. I want the table looking like this:
*****
NAMEEMAILAGE
tomtom@mail23
petepete@email23
davecool@mail21
stevesteve@mail17
richrich@mail65
richdick@mail65
Can you think of a way to do this?
i tried the following but it gets rid of duplicates of other fields which is not what i want to do
CREATE table distinct_records
SELECT name, Email, Age
FROM duplicate_records
GROUP BY name, Email, Age;
any ideas guys?
thanks

Jun 13, 2008Hi,
Is there a way to find duplicates in one field? For example my query has person_nbr and for each person_nbr on one day they could have used multiple payer_names. I want to be able to count each person_nbr one time but also I want to group by description(which is the name of the provider) and by payer name to see how many person's that the provider seen with each payer. My problem is that if the person had more than one payer they are counted twice. Is there some type of aggregate function to use the first payer in the list??
With PersonMIA (person_id,person_nbr,first_name,last_name,date_of_birth) as
(
select distinct person_id,person_nbr,first_name,last_name,date_of_birth from
(select count(*) as countenc,a.person_id,a.person_nbr,
a.first_name,a.last_name,
a.date_of_birth
from person a
join patient_encounter b on a.person_id = b.person_id
group by a.person_id,a.person_nbr,a.first_name,a.last_name,a.date_of_birth )tmp
where tmp.countenc <=1
)
select person_nbr,payer_name,first_name,last_name,description,year(create_timestamp),create_timestamp
from
(
select distinct c.description,tmp.person_id,tmp.person_nbr,tmp.first_name,
tmp.last_name,tmp.date_of_birth,d.payer_name,b.create_timestamp
from PersonMIA tmp
join person a on a.person_id = tmp.person_id
join patient_encounter b on a.person_id = b.person_id
join provider_mstr c on b.rendering_provider_id = c.provider_id
join person_payer d on tmp.person_id = d.person_id
where c.description = 'Leon MD, Enrique'
group by c.description,tmp.person_id,tmp.person_nbr,tmp.first_name,tmp.last_name,
tmp.date_of_birth,d.payer_name,b.create_timestamp

where year(create_timestamp) IN (2005,2006)
group by person_nbr,payer_name,first_name,last_name,description,create_timestamp

Duplicates
May 10, 2006Hi,
I'll see if I can explain this clearly. The query below
selects rows from the "hdr_ctl_nbr_status" table if the value in the field "tcn" from that table is found in the table "temp_tcn". I want all fields from the "hdr_ctl_nbr_status" table to be selected BUT only one row. In other words for a tcn with a value "12345678" there are 10 rows returned from the hdr_ctl_nbr_status table, I want only 1. Is there a way I can use SELECT DISTINCT to do this ? I know this usually functions on one or more fields but I want the DISTINCT to be on tcn only BUT return all fields in the query.
Select h.*,'' from hdr_ctl_nbr_status as h WITH (NOLOCK)
where h.tcn in (select tcn from temp_tcn)
Thanks, sorry if this is too confusing. Jeff
No Duplicates Please
Mar 10, 2008Hi, All,
I have two columns of int data in the a table, as my example data shows below.
I want my data returned to be something like those in #test3, but my question is this, how can I do it without using #test2 and #test3?
By the way, the business requirement doesn't care it's min/max or any ID when one side has duplicated values.
Thanks!
Use tempdb
Go
if object_ID ('#test') is not null drop table #test
create table #test (col1 int, col2 int)
insert into #test
Select 123, 222 union
Select 124, 222 union
Select 125, 222 union
Select 111, 223 union
Select 111, 224
if object_ID ('#test2') is not null drop table #test2
create table #test2 (col1 int, col2 int)
Insert into #test2
Select distinct col1, min(col2) from #test group by col1
if object_ID ('#test3') is not null drop table #test3
create table #test3 (col1 int, col2 int)
Insert into #test3
Select min(col1), col2 from #test2 group by col2
Select * from #test3
Msg 512 But No Duplicates!?!
Jul 28, 2005I am attempting to execute the Stored Procedure at the foot of thismessage. The Stored Procedure runs correctly about 1550 times, butreceive the following error three times:Server: Msg 512, Level 16, State 1, Procedure BackFillNetworkHours,Line 68Subquery returned more than 1 value. This is not permitted when thesubquery follows =, !=, <, <= , >, >= or when the subquery is used asan expression.I've done some digging, and the error message is moderatelyself-explanatory.The problem is that there is no Line 68 in the Stored Procedure.

Finding Duplicates In SQL
Jul 26, 2002I have a customer database with the following structure:
Dept ID (int)
Section (varchar)
I need to find only occurrences of a section (eg Admin) where the section name has a record in Dept 1,2 and 3 - only return the result if the record for Admin is associated will these depts.
Example Data:
Dept Section
1 Admin
1 Finance
1 Marketing
2 Admin
2 Sales
2 Marketing
3 Admin
3 Sales
3 Finance
The query would only return 'Admin' since this is the only Section that is represented in Departments 1,2 + 3.
I am not in control of the data design and can't create a bitwise field to achieve this.

I’m using SQL Server 2000. I have a table called Contacts and I would like to be able to have the UserID as an indexed column and to ignore duplicates. I set up the following properties within my SQL Server database table:
Table Name: Contacts
Selected Index: IX_UserID
Column Name: UserID
Order: Ascending
Create Unique
Index
Ignore Duplicate Key
Every time I try to enter duplicates for the UserID column; I get an error that says, “Cannot enter duplicate key row in object ‘Contacts’. Can anyone explain this? Is it possible to create an index column with duplicate data?

Sep 21, 2004Hey all.
I have a table with 100,000 plus records in it, and some are duplicates. Is there any way to delete one of them and not the other. For instance, if I duplicate the table I could run this query.
<cfquery name="query1" datasource="datasource">
DELETE DISTINCT
FROM tablename
WHERE FirstName in ( SELECT FirstName from tablename1 where tablename1.FirstName = tablename.FIRST_NAME AND tablename1.LastName = tablename.LAST_NAME AND tablename1.State = tablename.STATE)
</cfquery>
However, it doesn't work. I know the distinct is not correct. But does anyone know how to achieve this, I have looked all over, and everything I try deletes both records. I was thinking of using some kindof count statement, but it still deletes both of them. Please help. Thanks
Removing Duplicates
Jan 27, 2005I have a members table and have added an extra few thoushand members to it. Now I need to remove the duplicates.
It doesnt matter which duplicate i remove as long as there are unique email addresses.
so here is the format of the table:
id
email
firstname
lastname
datebirth
if i do a:
SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT Email) AS Expr1
FROM Customer
it returns 21345
and
SELECT Count(Email)
FROM Customer
returns 28987
I can get the unique email addresses into another table by going:
SELECT DISTINCT emailaddress INTO DistinctCustomer
FROM Customer
but this will only return unique email addresses. How do i select distinct email address and all other fields into a new table? or just remove duplicates where email address appears more then once?
Thanks in advance

Self-Join Duplicates - Help!
Oct 22, 2004Can some kind person out there please help me, I've been stuck on this for daaaa-y-s.
I have a database that allows users to search for pdf's of technical drawings.
Basically I have one huge table with multiple columns, which the user can only search on any combination of one of these two columns
"drawing_series" eg 0100, 0046, 1000
"drawing_number" eg 0076000, 0000123, 0000004
There is also a Revision column(which the user can't see) that goes up by 1 each time a drawing has been modified and resubmitted to the database.
"revision" eg 01, 02, 03, ....... 99
So a search on 0046 series might pull back drawings
0046-0010000-01
0046-0010000-02
0046-0010000-03
0046-0076000-01
0046-0076888-01
0046-0076888-02
The problem is that I only want drawings with the highest revisions returned eg
0046-0010000-03
0046-0076000-01
0046-0076888-02
The code below worked like a charm in the test stages pulling back a few hundred records but now that i've uploaded 10's of thousands of records to the DB the whole lot dies if the search result pulls back more than a few thousand records.
SELECT * FROM dbo.Drawing_Database
where dbo.Drawing_Database.revision=(select max(revision) from dbo.Drawing_Database self where self.drawing_series + self.drawing_number = dbo.Drawing_Database.drawing_series + dbo.Drawing_Database.drawing_number) Drawing_Series like '0046' order by Drawing_Series, Drawing_Number
There must be a simpler way of doing this as i can pull out duplicate series + numbers using " HAVING Count(*)>1" but dont know where to go from there.
Help!
