SELECT YourColumn, COUNT(*) TotalCount FROM YourTable GROUP BY YourColumn HAVING COUNT(*) > 1 ORDER BY COUNT(*) DESC
The syntax in the previous answer (where count(*) > 1) is very questionable. suppose you think that you have duplicate employee numbers. There's no need to count them to find out which values were duplicate but the followin SQL will show only the empnos that are duplicate and how many exist in the table:Select empno, count(*)from employeegroup by empnohaving count(*) > 1Generally speaking aggregate functions (count, sum, avg etc.) go in the HAVING clause. I know some systems allow them in the WHERE clause but you must be very careful in interpreting the result.WHERE COUNT(*) > 1 will absolutely NOT work in DB2 or ORACLE. Sybase and SQLServer is a different animal.
