Was wondering how many fellow code monkeys are in myLot..
There is an Oracle SQL statement to identity repeated data in a column, pretty handy when you are trying to clean a table
Select fld_NoRepeat a From tld_Repeat Where (Select Count(b.fld_NoRepeat) From tbl_Repeat b Where b.fld_NoRepeat= a.fld_NoRepeat) 1
Alter, fire and tell me what you think:p

This works for Oracle huh? Wouldn't it works for other SQL database too? I am a monkey, but no code monkey. ^_^ I haven't written SQL for months, I forgot most of it. But it look like it works, if u are finding where in that table with repeated data. I don't know.

I've tested it in mySQL as well, seems to work fine. I guess it would work in MS as well (shivers at the thought of ms)
