Duplicate Records In Multiple Columns.
May 21, 2008
Hello,
I have a question regarding duplicate records, the thing is I'm able to query for duplicated records if I type the following:
select ColumnName from TableName
where ColumnName in
(
select ColumnName from TableName
group by ColumnName having count(*) > 1
)
That gives me duplicate records for one column, but I need find duplicate records in more than one column (4 columns to be exact), but the way I need to find these records is they all have to be duplicate, what I'm trying to say is I don't don't want to find the following:
First Last Age Email
John Smith 25 jsmith@hotmail.com
John Smith 26 jsmith@hotmail.com
John Smith 25 jsmith4@hotmail.com
I need to find the following:
First Last Age Email
John Smith 25 jsmith@hotmail.com
John Smith 25 jsmith@hotmail.com
John Smith 25 jsmith@hotmail.com
So all the columns must be exactly the same, that's the only condition I want to show the records, is there any way to do this?
For the record, I'm using MS SQL Server 2000, thank you.

rewrite the below two queries (so that i can avoid duplicates) i need to send email to everyone not the dup[right][/right]licated ones)?
Create table #MyPhoneList
(
AccountID int,
EmailWork varchar(50),
EmailHome varchar(50),
EmailOther varchar(50),
[Code] ....
--> In this table AccountID is uniquee
--> email values could be null or repetetive for work / home / Other (same email can be used more than one columns for accountid)
-- a new column will be created with name as Sourceflag( the value could be work, Home, Other depend on email coming from) then removes duplicates
SELECT AccountID , Email, SourceFlag, ROW_NUMBER() OVER(PARTITION BY AccountID, Email ORDER BY Sourceflag desc) AS ROW
INTO #List
from (
SELECTAccountID
, EmailWorkAS EMAIL
, 'Work'AS SourceFlag
FROM#MyPhoneList (NoLock) eml
WHEREIsOffersToWorkEmail= 1

Have a table that is used during a conversion. It is hit pretty heavily with inserts by mulitple session ids. For performance reasons I cannot add a unique constraint on the column that is getting duplicates (it is an encrypted cell in varbinary).
I do not want duplicates in this Encrypted Column. So before each insert the insert programs reads the table and verifies that the Encrypted Column value does not already exist. But unfortunately several duplicates are falling through the cracks. What are my options for not allowing duplicates?

I have tried joining several tables and the result displays duplicate rows of virtually every line/row. I have tried using distinct but this didn't work. I know it could because there's several columns from some of the tables named the same.
select purchaseorders.traderid,
suppliers.name
stockbatches.partid,
allpartmaster.partdesc,
allpartmaster.prodgroup,
[Code]....

I'm in the process of trying to identify duplicate contacts. I doing this for millions of contacts and have gotten stuck and could use some elegant solutions!
The business rule is this:
Any contact that has the same name, phone and email address are the same contact
Any contact that has the same name, and email address are the same contact
Any contact that has the same name, email address, but different phone are a different contact.
Any contact that has the same name, email address, and a blank phone can be the same contact as one that has the same name, email address, and has an email address
Rank by the DataSource_fk. 1 being the highest
Put another way:
If 3 contacts have the same name, 2 have phone '1112223344' and all three have the email address 'johndoe@gmail.com' they are the same contact and the lowest DataSource_fk should be ranked the highest.
I've used the Row_number over (Partition by) in the past, but am unsure how to deal with the blanks in email and phone.
DROP TABLE [dbo].[TestBusinessContact];
GO
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[TestBusinessContact]
(
[TestBusinessContact_pk] INT IDENTITY(1,1)NOT NULL,
[Business_fk]INT NOT NULL CONSTRAINT DF_TestBusinessContact_Business_fk DEFAULT(0),
[Code] ......

I'm exporting the following query to a datagrid, however in the result set, some values are duplicated (for various reasons... mostly old software and poor categorization)...On the records with identical values, I want to look at the account number and the DateOfService fields and search for joint distinct values and only display that...Current Example: ACCT NUM | DATE OF SERVICE |________________________________ 43490 | 10/01/2006 08:15:23 | 35999 | 10/10/2005 12:00:00 | 35999 | 10/24/2005 12:45:30 | 35999 | 10/10/2005 12:00:00 | 35999 | 10/10/2005 12:00:00 | 23489 | 10/15/2006 15:13:23 |Desired Result: ACCT NUM | DATE OF SERVICE |________________________________ 43490 | 10/01/2006 08:15:23 | 35999 | 10/10/2005 12:00:00 | 35999 | 10/24/2005 12:45:30 | 23489 | 10/15/2006 15:13:23 |Here is the query I'm working with... just can't figure out how to join or limit the results to ONLY unique matches in Acct Number AND DateOfService.

I have a table structure where there are multiple "/" separated values in two columns that I need to parse out into single records.
CREATE TABLE CONFIGNEW(PlanID VARCHAR(100), GroupID VARCHAR(6), SubGroupID VARCHAR(255), AddOnCode VARCHAR(2), ExternalCode VARCHAR(20)
INSERT INTO CONFIGNEW(PlanID, GroupID, SubGroupID, ExternalCode) VALUES('101/201', '000005', 'LAA/OCA/UCA/XCA', '1', 'M231_1)
[Code] .....
The results I am looking to achieve are:

Is there an SQL statement that can be used to accomplish this?

I'm using SQL server 200
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've begun to get the above error from my package. The error message refers to two output columns.
Anyone know how this could happen from within the Visual Studio 2005 UI? I've seen the other posts on this subject, and they all seemed to be creating the packages in code.
Is there any way to see all of the columns in the data flow? Or is there any other way to find out which columns it's referring to?
Thanks!

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.
Thanks

I have two tables, one contains all work orders, the second contains records on work orders that are linked to customoer orders. 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). I have tried several queries and cannot get the results I desire. Here is the query I am currently trying.
SELECT DISTINCT WORK_ORDER.DESIRED_WANT_DATE as 'Want Date', DEMAND_SUPPLY_LINK.SUPPLY_BASE_ID as 'WO Id',
WORK_ORDER.DESIRED_QTY as 'End Qty', DEMAND_SUPPLY_LINK.SUPPLY_PART_ID as 'Part Id', CUST_ORDER_LINE.CUSTOMER_PART_ID as 'Cust Part',
OPERATION.RESOURCE_ID as Resource, PART.DESCRIPTION as Description, CUSTOMER.NAME as Name
FROM ((((DEMAND_SUPPLY_LINK INNER JOIN CUST_ORDER_LINE ON DEMAND_SUPPLY_LINK.DEMAND_BASE_ID = CUST_ORDER_LINE.CUST_ORDER_ID)
INNER JOIN WORK_ORDER ON DEMAND_SUPPLY_LINK.SUPPLY_BASE_ID = WORK_ORDER.BASE_ID)
INNER JOIN OPERATION ON WORK_ORDER.BASE_ID = OPERATION.WORKORDER_BASE_ID) INNER JOIN PART ON WORK_ORDER.PART_ID = PART.ID)
INNER JOIN (CUSTOMER INNER JOIN CUSTOMER_ORDER ON CUSTOMER.ID = CUSTOMER_ORDER.CUSTOMER_ID) ON CUST_ORDER_LINE.CUST_ORDER_ID = CUSTOMER_ORDER.ID
WHERE WORK_ORDER.DESIRED_WANT_DATE Is Not Null AND OPERATION.RESOURCE_ID in ('ASSY','FAB 1','PLAY TRK')
AND WORK_ORDER.STATUS='R'
UNION
SELECT distinct work_order.desired_want_date as 'Want Date', work_order.BASE_id as 'WO Id',
work_order.desired_qty as 'End Qty', work_order.part_id as 'Part Id', operation.resource_id as Resource,
part.description as Description
FROM WORK_ORDER INNER JOIN PART ON PART_ID=WORK_ORDER.PART_ID INNER JOIN OPERATION ON WORK_ORDER.BASE_ID=OPERATION.WORKORDER_BASE_ID
WHERE WORK_ORDER.DESIRED_WANT_DATE IS NOT NULL AND OPERATION.RESOURCE_ID IN ('ASSY','FAB 1', 'PLAY TRK')
AND WORK_ORDER.STATUS='R'
This is the error I receive:
Server: Msg 205, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
All queries in an SQL statement containing a UNION operator must have an equal number of expressions in their target lists.
The all orders table (work_order) will not have the other fields to link to as there is no customer order linked to them.
Can anyone help. Thanks!

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

I have a business need to create a report by query data from a MS SQL 2008 database and display the result to the users on a web page. The report initially has 6 columns of data and 2 out of 6 have JSON data so the users request to have those 2 JSON columns parse into 15 additional columns (first JSON column has 8 key/value pairs and the second JSON column has 7 key/value pairs). Here what I have done so far:
I found a table value function (fnSplitJson2) from this link [URL]. Using this function I can parse a column of JSON data into a table. So when I use the function above against the first column (with JSON data) in my query (with CROSS APPLY) I got the right data back the but I got 8 additional rows of each of the row in my table. The reason for this side effect is because the function returned a table of 8 row (8 key/value pairs) for each json string data that it parsed.
1. First question: How do I modify my current query (see below) so that for each row in my table i got back one row with 19 columns.
SELECT A.ITEM1,A.ITEM2,A.ITEM3,A.ITEM4, B.*
FROM PRODUCT A
CROSS APPLY fnSplitJson2(A.ITEM5,NULL) B
If updated my query (see below) and call the function twice within the CROSS APPLY clause I got this error: "The multi-part identifier "A.ITEM6" could be be bound.
2. My second question: How to i get around this error?
SELECT A.ITEM1,A.ITEM2,A.ITEM3,A.ITEM4, B.*, C.*
FROM PRODUCT A
CROSS APPLY fnSplitJson2(A.ITEM5,NULL) B, fnSplitJson2(A.ITEM6,NULL) C
I am using Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 version. Windows 7 desktop.

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

hi,
I am trying to fetch data from 2 tables, say TABLE1 and TABLE2, both of which got columns like id and num. Then i want all the rows from TABLE1 where id1=id2 and num1 != num2.
but it is showing all the rows for an id1 twice, if there are two records in TABLE2 with same id and num.
is there any way to filter those records without using the distinct keyword.
regards
