Re: Problem writing sql statement....

Or, if you need the whole row:

SELECT at1.* FROM a_table as at1
WHERE EXISTS (
SELECT 1 FROM a_table as at2
WHERE at2.my_date = at1.my_date
AND at2.prod_id = at1.prod_id
AND at2.primary_key <> at1.primary_key
)

This form can easily be adjusted to show
only certain duplicates, or only to delete
certain duplicates.
