Delete And Merge Duplicate Records From Joined Tab
Oct 21, 2014
Im trying to delete duplicate records from the output of the query below, if they also meet certain conditions ie 'different address type' then I would merge the records. From the following query how do I go about achieving one and/or the other from either the output, or as an extension of the query itself?

Hello, I have the following Query: 1 declare @StartDate char(8)2 declare @EndDate char(8)3 set @StartDate = '20070601'4 set @EndDate = '20070630'5 SELECT Initials, [Position], DATEDIFF(mi,[TimeOn],[TimeOff]) AS ProTime6 FROM LogTable WHERE 7 [TimeOn] BETWEEN @StartDate AND @EndDate AND8 [TimeOff] BETWEEN @StartDate AND @EndDate9 ORDER BY [Position],[Initials] ASC The query returns the following data: Position Initials ProTime -------------------------------------------------- -------- ----------- ACAD JJ 127 ACAD JJ 62 ACAD KK 230 ACAD KK 83 ACAD KK 127 ACAD TD 122 ACAD TJ 127
What I'm having trouble with is the fact that I need to return a results that has the totals for each set of initials for each position. For Example, the final output that I'm looking to get is the following: Postition Initials ProTime ACAD JJ 189ACAD KK 440ACAD TD 122ACAD TJ 127 Any assistance greatly appreciated.
I use a tabel for storin log data from a mail server. I noticed that I'm getting duplicate records, is there a way to delete the socond and/or third entry so I dont have any duplicates?
Userid is auto number, lastname and emailaddress are PK.
I want to delete duplicate records. If lastname and emailaddress are the same, only keep a record which createdate is the most newest date. See above example I only want to the record which userid is 3. I have alreday created a code which I attached below. This code onle keep a record which userid is 1.
Anybody can help me to solve this problem? Thanks.
============== My current code ==================== delete from userprofile where userprofile.userid in --list all rows that have duplicates (select p.userid from userprofile as p where exists (select lastname, emailaddress from userprofile where lastname = p.lastname and emailaddress = p.emailaddress group by lastname, emailaddress having count (userid)>1)) and userprofile.userid not in --list on row from each set of duplicate (select min(p.userid) from userprofile as p where exists (select lastname, emailaddress from userprofile where lastname = p.lastname and emailaddress = p.emailaddress group by lastname, emailaddress having count (userid)>1) group by lastname, emailaddress)
I have a little dilemma. I have a table ALLTABLE that has duplicate records and I want to delete them. ALLTABLE has these columns with these values for example:
As you can see there is some duplicates in the first 3 rows and the final 2 (the entity number is the only difference). I want the table to look like this:
Policy Premium Class State Entity Number ADC-WC-0010005-0 25476 63 31 1 ADC-WC-0010005-0 1457 63 29 4 ADC-WC-0010092-1 2322 63 37 1 ADC-WC-0010344-0 515 63 01 1
Thank you so much for the help. It is really appreciated.
I have the following table customerid customername ------------------------ 1 AAA 1 AAA 2 BBB 2 BBB 2 BBB 3 CCC 3 CCC
Here, I need to delete duplicate records from the above table. After deleting the duplicate records the table should be like this: customerid customername ------------------------ 1 AAA 2 BBB 3 CCC
I have inherited a database with no primary keys in it. :(
There are, of course, duplicate records by the "logical key", i.e., the list of columns that should have been used in a primary key, if they only had one. I can easily identify when I have duplicate records using group by and having clauses. That's the easy part.I can identify duplicate records by "key columns" and the subset of those records that are "identical duplicates on all columns". I need to delete the "extra copies"
I can't do it by hand using sql server manager, it won't let me, because it recognizes that more than one row matches that row. In Oracle, I would use the pseudo-column "rowid", which would expose the internal identifier for the row.SqlServer doesn't appear to have this concept. is there another way other than creating an empty shadow table, copying all the distinct duplicate records into the shadow table, deleting all the duplicates in the old table, then copying the distinct duplicates back into the old table.
I uploaded some data about 2 or 3 times and it keep appending it to thetable.Now I want to keep only first duplicate and delete rest of.Suppose part number 123 has been added 3 times so I want to keep only 1record.Thanks
I was importing records via DTSWizard, and I was having problems so I turned off Enforce Replicaton, Enforce FK Constraints on a couple of fields. I'm new with SQL Server so I'm not sure if this even caused the problem. (Do I need to turn these back on, or is this a Developer switch of some kind?)
The end result left me with duplicate records in the table, and I'm not able to delete any of them. This is the Error I got...
A problem occurred attempting to delete row 1. Error Source: Microsoft.VisualStudio,Datatools. Error Message: The row value(s) updated or deleted either do not make the row unique or they after multiple rows(2 rows).
If someone could tell me what I need to do so I can delete the records I'd really appreciate it.
Hello Frnds....Can anybody give the answer of this question as How to Delete duplicate records from Table ? I Know that with check option and also with Unique Constraint we can avoid to enter duplicate records in table but How to delete from table which does not have any constraints ?

Hi,I have an sql database that has the primary key set to three fields,but has not been set as unique(I didn't create the table).I have 1 record that has 2 duplicates and I am unable to delete theduplicate entries.If I try to delete any of the three records(they are identical) I getthe message 'key column is insufficient or incorrect. Too many rowswere affected by update'.I am trying to do this within Enterprise Mgr.Any suggestion?Thanks much
Table 1 Customers with column CustomerId Table 2 Purchases with columns PurchaseId and CustomerId
I want to select all customers who have made just 1 purchase, what would be the sql for that? I know I can join the tables to get the customers with purchases, but I don't know how to limit it to those with just 1 purchase (and exclude all the other customers).
I've searched high and low for info on how to do this... If anyone has an idea, I'd really appreciate it.
I have three tables: PEOPLE, PROJECTS, COMMENTS. I want users from the PEOPLE table to retrieve a list of PROJECTS and be able to add/edit COMMENTS on those projects.
The tables look like:
PEOPLE people_id (primary key) first_name last_name
I'd like to be able to output something like what I have below, but I don't know how to loop over the comments/people within the select statement for the projects.
DESIRED OUTPUT
Project #1 Comment #1 by Person #1 Comment #2 by Person #3 Comment #3 by Person #8
Project #2 Comment #1 by Person #2 Comment #2 by Person #3 Comment #3 by Person #6
Etc...
I've done it before by just listing the projects and then providing a detail page with all the comments, but it's much less confusing to access all the comments from the same page, grouped by project.
Table A has columns CompressedProduct, Tool, Operation
Table B in a differnt database has columns ID, Product, Tool Operation
I cannot edit table A. I can select records from A and insert into B. And I can select only the records that are in both tables.
But I want to be able to select any records that are in table A but not in Table B.
ie. I want to select records from A where the combination of Product, Tool and Operaton does not appear in Table B, even if all 3 on their own do appear.
This code return all the records from A. I need to filter out the records found in Table B.
SELECT ID, CompressedProduct, oq.Tool, oq.Operation FROM OPENQUERY (Lisa_Link, 'SELECT DISTINCT CompressedProduct, Tool, Operation FROM tblToolStatus ts JOIN tblProduct p ON ts.ProductID = p.ProductID JOIN tblTool t ON ts.ToolID = t.ToolID JOIN tblOperation o ON ts.OperationID = o.OperationID WHERE ts.ToolID=66 ') oq LEFT JOIN Family f on oq.CompressedProduct = f.Product and oq.Tool = f.Tool and oq.Operation = f.Operation
I am using Master Data Service for couple of months now. I can load, update, merge and soft delete data in MDS. Occasionally we even have to hard delete data from MDS. If we keep on soft deleting records in a MDS table eventually there will be huge number of soft deleted records. Is there an easy way to hard delete all the soft deleted records from all MDS tables in a specific Model.
there are two tables involve in replication let say table1 and replicated table is also rep.table1.
we are not deleting records physically in table1 so only a bit in table1 has true when u want to delete a record but the strange thing is that replication agaent report that this is hard delete operation on table1 so download and report hard delete operation and delete the record in replicated table which is very crucial.
plz let me know where am i wrong and how i put it into right way.
there is no triggers on published tables and noother trigger is created on published table.
I have been trying to solve the locking problem from past couple of days. Please help mee!!
Scenario: -------------- I have a SSIS package in which 2 data flow tasks. 1st data flow task deletes records from a 5 tables and the 2nd data flow task should insert records into 1 of the five tables after the success of 1st data flow task. This scenario runs in Transacation.
The above scenrio in the 2nd data flow task hangs in runtime. It does not complete. with sp_who2 command i could see that there is an intent share lock(LK_M_IS) on the table and the status is SUSPENDED.
I dont know how to come out of this locking. Please help.
CAN ANYBODY REPLY FOLLOWING QUESTIONS. I WANT TO DELETE DUPLICATE ROWS IN MY TABLE WITHOUT USING TRANSACTION TABLE. AND ONE MORE QUESTION HOW TO GET YESTERDAY DATE BY USING ISQL WINDOW.
I have several rows in a table that contain duplicate information. I want to trim them down to one instance per row, without other duplicates.
I have several columns, but only 2 of the columns are used to determine the "Identical Rows", however one of the other columns could also be used to determine which of the others are deleted.
Let's just say I have a table called DATA. In DATA I have the following columns: C1: ID/Key column (Unique numbers not associated with any other row) C2: Specific Data column 1 C3: Specific Data Column 2 C3: Keeper if not null C4: Misc Info C5: Misc Info
Basically IF C2 & C3 are duplicated, then I want to keep one of these and ditch the others.
The row I want to keep is the one that has info in C4, but at times C4 does not have anything in it on any of them, at that point I just care about keeping one of the C2 & C3 Duplicate rows.
The other issue I face is C2 will always have something in it, but at times C3 will not and C4 will.
So I want to keep the one duplicate row that has the most info in it. At minimum, I want to always keep C2 & C3 if they both contain data.
For example, if I had the following duplicate rows: (C2) red (C3) 123 (C4) XYZ (C2) red (C3) 123 (C4) XYZ (C2) red (C3) 123 (C4) XYZ (C2) red (C3) (C4) XYZ (C2) red (C3) 123 (C4)
I want to keep: (C2) red (C3) 123 (C4) XYZ
I have some rows that have three exact duplicates, some that have four, some that have two.
How can I tell the Query Manager to delete all but one instance of each duplicate row?
I did do a query to find out how many duplicates I have and found it to be around 232,000+. Basically I will be cutting this in half if I can get rid of the duplicates.
I have read 30 different ways on many sites and I am now officially confused
I am trying to delete the duplicates from a table, but keep 1 of the records.
Here is my query which works on smaller tables <2000 records, but the query either timeouts or just runs and runs on larger tables >50,000 and >150,000.
DELETE FROM Table1 WHERE Table1.ID IN
/* LIST 1 - all rows that have duplicates*/ (SELECT F.ID FROM Table1 AS F WHERE EXISTS ( SELECT computerName, programName, version, publisher, Count(ID) FROM Table1 WHERE Table1.computerName = F.computerName AND Table1.programName = F.programName AND Table1.version = F.version AND Table1.publisher = F.publisher GROUP BY Table1.computerName, Table1.programName, Table1.version, Table1.publisher HAVING Count(Table1.ID) > 1)) AND Table1.ID NOT IN
/* LIST 2 - one row from each set of duplicate*/ (SELECT Min(ID) FROM Table1 AS F WHERE EXISTS ( SELECT computerName, programName, version, publisher, Count(ID) FROM Table1 WHERE Table1.computerName = F.computerName AND Table1.programName = F.programName AND Table1.version = F.version AND Table1.publisher = F.publisher GROUP BY Table1.computerName, Table1.programName, Table1.version, Table1.publisher HAVING Count(Table1.ID) > 1) GROUP BY computerName, programName, version, publisher);

The duplicate records i am trying to delete are not truly duplicates, each record has a unique ID and install dates could vary. I am trying to identify duplicate records as identical (computerName + programName + version + publisher) See records 1 and 4 in table structure above... i dont care which of the duplicates is kept, as long as 1 is kept.
What I am looking for is either a completely new query which maybe optimized to run on a larger scale table or maybe just a performance tweak to my exisitng query??
declare @a1 table (id int not null identity(1,1), phone decimal(18,0), adress nvarchar(100)) insert @a1 (phone,adress)
