Error When Removing Duplicates
Jan 12, 2006
I found a query on here to find all my duplicates (altered to fit mine)
----
select * from yourtable
where WCD_no in
( select WCD_no from yourtable
group by WCD_no having count(*) > 1 )
----
and it works great. However, when I try and delete one of these, I get the following error message.
"key column is insufficient or incorrect. Too may rows were affected by update"
Any idea on how I can delete these without having to drop the table or anything?

I need to remove the duplicates from a table. If a record exits 4 times in a
table I need to delete 3 records and retain only one occurance of that.
I need a query to do this.
Can anybody help.

I 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

HiI have inherited a web app with the following table structure, and need toproduce a table without any duplicates. Email seems like the best uniqueidentifier - so only one of each e-mail address should be in the table.Following http://www.sqlteam.com/item.asp?ItemID=3331 I have been able toget a duplicate count working:select Email, count(*) as UserCountfrom dbo.Membersgroup by Emailhaving count(*) > 1order by UserCount descBut the methods for create a new table without duplicates fail. My code forthe 2nd method is:sp_rename 'Members', 'temp_Members'select distinct *into Membersfrom temp_MembersTable....CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Members] ([MemberID] [int] IDENTITY (1, 1) NOT NULL ,[Username] [varchar] (10) COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NOT NULL ,[Password] [varchar] (10) COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NOT NULL ,[Email] [varchar] (50) COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NOT NULL ,[Title] [varchar] (10) COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NOT NULL ,[FirstName] [varchar] (50) COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NOT NULL ,[Surname] [varchar] (50) COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NOT NULL ,[Address1] [varchar] (35) COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NOT NULL ,[Address2] [varchar] (35) COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NOT NULL ,[City] [varchar] (25) COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NOT NULL ,[Country] [varchar] (25) COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NOT NULL ,[Profession] [varchar] (50) COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NOT NULL ,[Publication] [varchar] (40) COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NOT NULL ,[DateAdded] [smalldatetime] NOT NULL ,[SendMail] [smallint] NOT NULL) ON [PRIMARY]GOThanks B.

Hi There,
I was wondering if someone could help me with the results on this query, at the moment I am getting values repeated and I was wondering if it was possible to have some of the columns grouped, I have tried to have grouping at the end of the query but this still did not group the rows.
Thanks in advance for your answer - Sean

The database has Name,Email, and skill. Though the name is distinct it is repeated as it has different skills. I would like to remove duplicate names and add the corresponding skill to the only one row.
From the stored procedure, combining 3 tables I got the output as:
NameemaildepartmentSkill
ArunemailidTech teamTechnical
ArunemailidTech teamLeadership
ArunemailidTech teamDecision Making
BinayemailidMarketingTechnical
BinayemailidMarketingDecision Making
I would like to remove the duplicate Name fields and combine the Skill in a single row as other fields are same.
So the output should be
NameemaildepartmentSkill
ArunemailidTech teamTechnical, Leadership, Decision Making
BinayemailidMarketingTechnical,Decision Making

Hi, I'm in the midst of an Access 2003 to SQL server 2000 upsizing project and have come across a table on Sql Server that has a field that looks like it's supposed to be the PK but it contains duplicates. What I'd like to do is to have a cursor start at the first value and increment the next value by 1. Could someone explain how I'd go about this?
Many thanks,
Peter

I have a very large table that can contain up 3 to 5 duplicate records. Every month around 100,000 new records come in. Sometimes it's an ammended record, other times is just duplicated by error.
Is it possible to keep the latest record dumped into the table and delete the others? Does SQL track the order of the data being dropped into the table?
The layout would look like this. There are 10-15 other columns in the table where adjustments can also be made.
Lease# Year Month Production
12345 2008 10 1,231

I'm trying to pull records from a source/staging table where there is a duplicate row in it.I don't need that as the requirement is to garbage in /garbage out.when I do that from mart and use joins btw fact and dimensions, Im not getting this duplicate record as Im using distinct/group by. If I removed it, then it returns more than 3000 rows which is not correct. Is there a way I can keep these duplicates without removing group by...Im using correct joins and filters.

I have a query which finds duplicate spec_items linked to a work order. What I want to do it remove the duplicates (and in some cases there will be more than one) leaving only the record with the highest [sr.id]
select sr.id, sr.linked_to_worknumber, sr.spec_checklist_id from spec_checklist_remind sr inner join spec_checklist_remind sc on sc.linked_to_worknumber = sr.linked_to_worknumber
group by sr.id,sr.linked_to_worknumber, sr.spec_checklist_id
Having sr.spec_checklist_id = 30 and count(*)>1
order by sr.linked_to_worknumber
Sample of query results:
idlinked_to_worknumberspec_checklist_id
18323IP-DN-03377430
24229IP-DN-03377430
18294IP-DN-03380830
28027IP-DN-03380830
18295IP-DN-03381030
19924IP-DN-03381030
In the 3 cases, I would want to retain only records with ids 24229,28027 and 19924.

I have an existing stored table with duplicate rows that I want to delete.Using a cte gives me
WITH CTE AS
(
SELECT rn = ROW_NUMBER()
OVER(
PARTITION BY employeeid, dateofincident, typeid, description
ORDER BY Id ASC), *
FROM dbo.TableName
)
DELETE FROM cte
WHERE rn > 1
This is what I want to do basically. But this is only deleting in my CTE, is there anyway I can update my existing table "TableName" with this, without using temp tables?

I 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]....

Removing a parameter on a Reporting services report based on a 2005 AS cube results in an error:
[rsParameterReference] The Value expression for the query parameter €˜KalenderHierarchieJaarMaand€™ refers to a non-existing report parameter €˜KalenderHierarchieJaarMaand€™.
On the dataset, the parameter still exists. The error still occors after removing the parameter overhere too.
Steps to reproduce:
Build a raport based on a cube. Make a parameter in the dataset. check if the parameter works. Save the report and remove the parameter via the menu: Report> Report parameters > select the parameter and choose [Remove]. go to the "Preview" tab.
Has anyone found a work-around for this?
Thanks in advance,

There are a few users that have the same first and last name. How can I ignore the duplicate records and continue to update the table?

I am attempting to implement tighter security on my instances of SQL Server 2005. One of my tasks is to make sure that the service account for the SQL Server service has the minimum privileges necessary to run the service. I thought I had everything configured correctly, but then I realized that the "SQLServer2005MSSQLUser" Windows group was a member of the "sysadmin" fixed server role. I do not want the service account to be a sysadmin, so I removed the service account from this group.
Everything seemed to be working, until I received a call from one of our developers. He was attempting to execute a stored procedure, and he kept getting the following error: "An error occurred during decryption".
I looked up the error, and found out it is related to the service master key. I am using the same service account that I did when I installed SQL Server, so I am baffled as to why I am receiving this error. The error was resolved when I added the service account back to the "SQLServer2005MSSQLUser" Windows group and restarted the SQL Server service.
Do have any idea what might be happening here?

I 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!!

I 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

Hi,
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

Hi,
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

Hi, 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

I 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. It'sthe comment line:-- Need to find out how many hours the employee is scheduled etc.Also, there are no duplicate records in the Employee table nor theWeeklyProfile table. At least I assume so - if the following SQL todetect duplicates is correct!SELECT E.*FROMEmployee Ejoin(select EmployeeIDfromEmployeeGroup by EmployeeIDhaving count(*) > 1) as E2On(E.EmployeeID = E2.EmployeeID)SELECTW.*FROMWeekProfile Wjoin(SelectWeekProfileIDFROMWeekProfileGROUP BYEmployeeID, MondayHours, WeekProfileIDHAVING COUNT(*) > 1) AS W2ONW.WeekProfileID = W2.WeekProfileIDNOTE: In the second statement, I have tried for MondayHours thruFridayHours.Anyone got any ideas?
