Re: (OT) Exclusion selection on DBI

Untested:

SELECT name, color, count(name) as c FROM fruit GROUP BY name HAVING c
+ >= 2 ORDER BY fruit;
[download]

I don't know if that's standard sql, but it should work with MySQL

Update: I just tested something similar with mysql 5, and the alias doesn't seem to be necessary, so just SELECT name, color FROM fruit GROUP BY name HAVING COUNT(name) >= 2 ORDER BY fruit;

I'm going to update the node. There is a column I've not talked about. Anyway, the problem about GROUP approach is that it selects only the last row of each group. It produces: Orange, green Mellon, white But I really need to see the complete list of rows where fruit.name is repeated: Orange, yellow Orange, green Mellon, red Mellon, white Thanks!	[reply]

Actually moritz's solution gives you the data you want: `[59] 192.168.174.128 5010.my_db2.(sa).1> select * from fruit; t c -------------------- -------------------- orange yellow orange red banana yellow mellon yellow mellon red raisin green (6 rows affected) [61] 192.168.174.128 5010.my_db2.(sa).1> select t, c, count() from fr +uit group by t having count() > 1 order by t; t c -------------------- -------------------- ----------- mellon red 2 mellon yellow 2 orange red 2 orange yellow 2 (4 rows affected)` [download] This is using Sybase ASE 15.

Speusipo: You really ought to mark your updates better so people reading the thread aren't confused. In this case, you could have left the original message alone and just added the new information. Anyway, on to your question: Just add ',color' to the 'group by' clause in moritz's answer. ...roboticus	[reply]
