RE: Duplicate records

haven't tested it yet.  I think you might be able to do this statement on 
interactive sql:

with tempFile as                                                    
  (select 
        keyField, max(rrn(ACTUALFILE)) as uniRRN 
   from ACTUALFILE
   group by keyField
   order by KeyField)
  select * from ACTUALFILE exception join tempFile on rrn(ACTUALFILE)=uniRRN

Subject: Duplicate records



I have a PF with no keys. All records in this PF are duplicate, exactly same. 
What is a better way to remove all such duplicates? This is one time problem.

I thought of a program to read the file, read first record, keep it, read 
second and delete it and reset the counter. SQL of any help here?
