It sounds to me like you've actually got two tables. If this is the case, you can do 
something like:

  SELECT bar.foo
    FROM bar, baz
   WHERE baz.fooID in (baz.fooID)

Which would give you all of the bar records whos fooID links to baz.fooID. If you 
really are working with just one table, then I suspect that you haven't told us 
everthing. 

If you did this:

> SELECT foo 
> FROM   bar
> WHERE  fooID in (bar.fooID)

you'll probably get every record in the table. By any chance, is bar.fooID a delimited 
list of IDs?
