Re: Duplicate records

The only table in my query is "mytable".
The part (select field1, field2, count(*) from mytable group by field1,
field2 having count(*) > 1)
counts how many records have the same field1 and field2 and returns a
record per combination of field1 and field2 that have more than one (=
duplicates)

The rest uses that information to filter all fields of all the records
from that same table having such a combination of field1 and field2
This version is even a little shorter:
select *
from mytable A, (select field1, field2 from mytable group by field1,
field2 having count(*) > 1) B
where A.field1 = B.field1 and A.field2 = B.field2

Hi list,

how to retrieve the duplicate records based in one or two fields of my
table.

Any help would be welcomed.
