I would like to know how to get rows with duplicate values in certain
columns. Let's say I have a table called "Songs" with the following
columns:
artist
album
title
genre
track
Now I would like to show the duplicate songs to the user. I consider
songs that have the same artist and the same title to be the same song.
Note: All columns do not have to be the same.
How would I accomplish that with SQL in SQL Server?
Thanks to everyone reading this. I hope somebody has an answer. I've
already searched the whole newsgroups, but couldn't find the solution.

I am working on a sql data that has a list of product names, shipment type and the count of shipments. The values are listed as rows in the database. it will be in the below format.I want to transpose only the shipment type and the corresponding count of each product name in the below format.I tried to do this but i am not able to achieve in the correct format.
From the table i want everything highlighted with a *I wanted an SQl expression to look at values in Column 1 (ID), look atthe corresponding values in the second column (F1) and select the rowwith the highest value, and then if there was more than one row forthat ID with the same value in F1, look at column 3 (F2) and selectthe row with the highest value in this column.SQL> select * from test;ID F1 F2---------- ---------- ----------1 12 4* 1 12 61 11 11 9 122 3 5* 2 9 132 9 93 1 23 1 1* 3 7 5I try the followingSQL> select * from test t12 where f1 = (select max(f1) from test t2 where t2.id = t1.id)3 ;And get the followingID F1 F2---------- ---------- ----------1 12 4* 1 12 6* 2 9 132 9 9* 3 7 5If I add another line with an AND statement after line 2 I either getnothing or rubbish as the output.Ideas?Cheers
In a table I have some rows with flag A & B for a scode, some scode with only A and some are only B flags.
I would like to fetch all rows with flag A when both flags are present, no rows with B should be fetched. Fetch all rows when only single flags are present for a scode.How to achieve this using TSQL code.

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!
I have a situation in SSRS to get the common values between the two columns where the values are sorted comma separated as below.Ex:
ColumnA : abc,cde,efg ColumnB : cde,xyz,abc
the result in
ColumnC : cde,abc
similarly Column A and B will have n number records. I need to right an expression or the Code function to get the required result in ColumnC. I am using SharePoint Lists as Datasource. Cannot write SQL query to achieve this requirement.
Hello, I have a survey (30 questions) application in a SQL server db. The application uses several relational tables. The results are arranged so that each answer is on a seperate row: user1 answer1user1 answer2user1 answer3user2 answer1user2 answer2user2 answer3 For statistical analysis I need to transfer the results to an Excel spreadsheet (for later use in SPSS). In the spreadsheet I need the results to appear so that each user will be on a single row with all of that user's answers on that single row (A column for each answer): user1 answer1 answer2 answer3user2 answer1 answer2 answer3 How can this be done? How can all answers of a user appear on a single row Thanx,Danny.
;WITH ctePreAgg AS ( select top 500 act_reference "ActivityRef", row_number() over (partition by act_reference order by act_reference) as rowno, t3.s_initials "Initials" from mytablestuff order by act_reference

But what I would love to do next is take each of the above rows - and return the initials either in one column with all the nulls and duplicate values removed, separated by a comma ..
OR the above but using variable number of columns based on the maximum number of different initials for each row.this is not strictly required, but maybe neater for further work on the view
Basically, I'm given a daily schedule on two separate rows for shift 1 and shift 2 for the same employee, I'm trying to align both shifts in one row as shown below in 'My desired results' section.
Sample Data:
;WITH SampleData ([ColumnA], [ColumnB], [ColumnC], [ColumnD]) AS ( SELECT 5060,'04/30/2015','05:30', '08:30' UNION ALL SELECT 5060, '04/30/2015','13:30', '15:30' UNION ALL SELECT 5060,'05/02/2015','05:30', '08:30' UNION ALL SELECT 5060, '05/02/2015','13:30', '15:30'
I have the following variables VehicleID, TransactDate, TransactTime, OdometerReading, TransactCity, TransactState.
VehicleID is the unique vehicle ID, OdometerReading is the Odometer Reading, and the others are information related to the transaction time and location of the fuel card (similar to a credit card).
The records will be first grouped and sorted by VehicleID, TransactDate, TransactTime and OdometerReading. Then all records where the Vehicle ID and TransactDate is same for consecutive rows, AND TransactCity or TransactState are different for consecutive rows should be printed.
I also would like to add two derived variables.
1. Miles will be a derived variable that is the difference between consecutive odometer readings for the same Vehicle ID.
2. TimeDiff will be the second derived variable that will categorize the time difference for a particular vehicle on the same day.
My report should look like:
VehID TrDt TrTime TimeDiff Odometer Miles TrCity TrState 1296 1/30/2008 08:22:42 0:00:00 18301 000 Omaha NE 1296 1/30/2008 15:22:46 7:00:04 18560 259 KEARNEY NE
Hello, I have a table with say 45 columns. I have a business requirement that requires me to fetch the rows for which col1 , col2, ....col 11 are same and rest can be different. there is an identity column, in the table so I can have duplicate rows also.
how can I effectively write a query that will fetch me all those rows for which my 11 columns are same.
I have a report which is a list of items and I display everything about the item. It is great. My report table in the layout tab is simple. Header,Detail,Footer. Each Item has 65 columns. The number of items (rows) vary upon what you want to see. Example data. Item#, Description, CaseSalePrice, Cost, BottleSalePrice, Discount 123, Grenadine, 100.00, 75.00, 15.50, 2.00 456, Lime Juice, 120.00, 81.00, 17.25, 2.00
What I am actually doing is running this the top example and saving to excel. Then copying the sheet. Creating a new sheet then doing a paste special transpose and this gives the users what they want to see.
I want to grab that table object in the report layout tab and twist it 90degrees so the header is on the left, detail is in the middle and the footer is on the right. It would be perfect.
The dynamic column need is really the problem here. I never know how many items will be in the report. They all have the same basic information like description and pricing.
I am all out of creative ideas, any help would be appreciated.
I have a table which is a license holder table (i.e., plumbers, electricians etc...) There are some people who appear in the table more than once as they have more than 1 type of license. I am tasked with querying out 200 of these people a week for mailing a recruitment letter which I am doing using the following select statement:
SELECT TOP 200 Technicians.Name, Technicians.Address, Technicians.City, Technicians.State, Technicians.ZipCode, Technicians.LicenseType FROM Technicians
My problem is that this doesn't deal with the duplicates and distinct won't work because I need to pass the license type and that's the one field that's always distinct while the name and adress fields duplicate.
I'm ok at SQL, but this has really confused me - please help!
I've got a table which (amongst others) has two columns - myID, and barcode. Ideally myID and barcode should be a 1 to 1 relationship... but it's not. So how can I get a list of all rows where 1 barcode value has >1 myID? (and also vice versa if possible). Thanks!
I am trying to figure out a query to which the logic is simple, but I'm missing some basic SQL skill or technique somewhere.....
I have a table called NAME, from which I want to display the following columns:
namecode name Postaladdress
(there's a column called NAME as well as the table being called name incase your wondering)...
I'm concerned with the namecode and name columns for now....
I want to find duplicate name values from the table, how do I do this?
for example, in name, I have the value 'Long water Beach' appear twice. I want the query to show me how many times this appears from this table (duplicate values??)
Both namecode and name are navchar datatypes. So far I tried something like:
select name, namecode, postaladdress from name where name in (select name from name group by name, namecode, postaladdress having count(name) > 1)
I guess we can focus on the subquery here, but I just need that function or code which shows me the duplicate values!! I know its something staring me in the face, but I just can't see it!!
I used the following select statement to get duplicate records on Case_number column
select cases.distinct case_link, cases.case_number from cases group by case_link having case_number > 1
I got the error message that
"'cases.warrant_number' is invalid in the select list because it is not contained in either an aggregate function or the GROUP BY clause. AND cases.case_number' is invalid in the HAVING clause because it is not contained in either an aggregate function or the GROUP BY clause.
Any idea on a better statement to use. THANKS FOR YOUR HELP!
Hi, I have a table and this is what i did to get the desired result
Select A.col1,count(A.col1) from Tab1 group by col1 having count(A.Col1) > 1
i tried this - but it didnot worked - it returned col1 as blanks - Select A.col1,B.Col2,count(A.col1) from Tab1 A, Tab2 B where A.col1 = B.col1 group by A.col1 , b.col2 having count(A.Col1) > 1
As I was looking for all the rows that are apperaing more than once.
Now - The problem -
I have to join this table to another table Tab2 to get the other details. My Tab2 is a table from where I have to pull the Customer DEtails like name,address etc. How should I write this query? Any thinuhts? TIA
Hi. I'm a SQL Server newbie, very experienced with Access, developing an ASP.NET database editor web app. I query the database with a statement more or less in the following form:
SELECT organisation.OrgID, organisation.Name, organisation.whatever FROM services INNER JOIN servicegrouping ON services.serviceID=servicegrouping.serviceID INNER JOIN organisations ON servicegrouping.OrgID = organisations.OrgID WHERE services.service=x OR services.service=y
In other words, I have a database of organisations. The services offered by the organisations are in a separate table, and I only want to return organisations that offer services X or Y.
Okay, now if I did this in Access, this query would return just one record for each organisation that meets the condition, unless I was to include a field from the services table in the SELECT clause, in which case of course I would get one record for each organisation and unique service offered.
But in MS SQL, the query returns duplicate rows if there is more than service offered by the organisation that meets the WHERE condition (=x or =y). Why is this and what do I need to do to my SQL statement to ensure I only get unique rows?
I've a query which gets a set of data from multiple tables -
select * FROM A inner JOIN q ON (RIGHT(q.name,CHARINDEX('-',REVERSE(q.name))-1)= a.id) inner JOIN t ON (t.id = q.id) inner JOIN s ON (q.name = s.name ) inner join l on (s.name = l.name and t.name = l.name)
WHERE A.id = 764 and s.name = '764'
I get repeated # of rows for each id. I've some 136 rows for each q.id ( there are 6 q.ids and hence I get 816 rows instead of 136) These 136 rows are actually divided among thse q.ids as
Hello, I have a table T1 and on this table I have an insert trigger. In the trigger I need to check if T1.ID and T1.Type=’xyz’ together are duplicated or not (duplicate dhcek on two columns), if yes return error from trigger. There might be T1.ID and T1.Type=’abc’ duplicated, that is fine.
Hi,I have written a stored procedure to store values from a report i generated to the DB. Now there is a column PKID which is the primary key but also needs to be repeated at times.

We are experiencing a problem at more than one site - it has only just started happening.
We are actually getting duplicate Identity column values in various tables and the values seem random - its not like the counter just gets wound back.
We have used dbcc checkident and also bcp out and in the data, which of course corrected the tables but only temporarily. Our application is not doing any select into`s - just plain old inserts which for some reason are allowing dups to be inserted into the tables.
problem sites are either sp3 or sp4.
There are thousands of sites (including most of ours) where there are no problems like this with this particular app.
i am trying to delete rows where a particular column (hours) has the same value for the same member (primary key) but where the effective dates are different. i want to delete the duplicate(s) rows which have the most recent effective date(s).
I know this question has been asked before but this is a little different and I can't seem to get my head around it right now. What i have is a table like so:
ID1 ID2 DESC 100 24 something1 100 24 this is a test 100 24 100 25 somethingelse 101 36 something 101 37 something else altogether
What i need is to determine which ID1 value has the same ID2 value listed more than once WITH the description filled in. If there is no description filled in even though the ID2 may be listed twice on one ID1, then it's ok and don't want it displayed in the query.
So, in this case, ID1 of 100 has ID2 24 listed twice with a description on both ID2's (of 24). this is what I need to show up in the query like so:
ID1 ID2 DESC 100 24 something1 100 24 this is a test
Could someone give me a hand with this? I've found similiar problems...but haven't been able to apply those answers to this.
