If not, why not just use the existing Customer ID field or something like that that is probably already unique? Lyle From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:arsl...@arslist.org] On Behalf Of Hyunkel v2.0 Sent: Thursday, April 16, 2009 11:01 PM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Sybase ** Hi Listers: I'm running out with an issue with Sybase I have a table with some duplicate values, like this: First Name | Last Name | Customer ID | entry id John | Smith | 1 | 123 John | Smith | 2 | 124 John | Simmons | 3 | 125 John | Simmons | 4 | 126 I run from remedy a sql to synchronize the Customer ID and set it as "First Name+Last Name" so the result table must be: First Name | Last Name | Customer ID | entry id John | Smith | JohnSmith | 123 John | Smith | JohnSmith | 124 John | Simmons | JohnSimmons | 125 John | Simmons | JohnSimmons | 126 But The Customer ID must be a unique value, so this rule generates that exists on the system duplicate records. I need to find a SQL statement that: * Identify duplicate records. * Let set as Customer ID the entry id value I'm usign sybase 13, actually i have sql sentences to give the number of duplicate records, but those don't let me update due the subquery returns more than 1 row. Any thoughts? Any help will be appreciate Best Regards Hugo Ruesga perotsystems® US 972.577.7000 MX +52 (33) 3332.3868 P Please consider the environment before printing this email The information contained in and transferred with this electronic message is intended only for the recipient(s) designated above, it is protected by law and it may contain information which is privileged and confidential.
