pgsql-sql@postgresql.org<br/> Subject: [SQL] How to find double entries<br /><br /> Hi,<br /><br /> how can I find
doubleentries in varchar columns where the content is<br /> not 100% identical because of a spelling error or the
personconsidered<br /> it "looked nicer" that way?<br /><br /> I'd like to identify and then merge records of e.g.  
'google','gogle',<br /> 'guugle'<br /><br /> Then I want to match abbrevations like  'A-Company Ltd.', 'a company<br />
ltd.','A-Company Limited'<br /><br /> Is there a way to do this?<br /> It would be OK just to list candidats up to be
manuallychecked afterwards.<br /><br /><br /> Regards<br /> Andreas<br /><br /> --<br /> Sent via pgsql-sql mailing
