Hello,
I'd like to select from one table ( contains duplicates ) into a new table.
However the new table is exactly the same as the original ( duplicates
included )
I think I have a problem with my DISTINCT clause - sql below.
It seems the DISTINCT is applied to the whole row not just the 'phone'
field.
Is the a way I can select the whole row into a new table based on a DISTINCT
phone number ?
Is the a way I can select the whole row into a new table based on a DISTINCT
phone number and state ?
Else I'll need to select into a table then select again etc,etc ....to
remove duplicates.
SELECT DISTINCT phone, company_name, address, state, idc_desc_1, street_number, street_name,
street_xtra, suburb, postcode, area_code, ac_phone, fax_area_code, fax_phone, fax_ac_phone, latitude,
longitude
INTO export_temp
FROM export;
Thanks
Rudi
