my fault: I said "entries" but actually this is not correct.

I already have in the workflow one AL-table-loop and one filter-table-loop on two different tables for my form A.
And I read logins from another form B. These are read in the table fields.
At the end of my 2 table-loop I have a field which displays logins on my form A. Sometimes I have 2 times the same login. This is because one login could be checked two times. So it is a normal result at the end. But still I would like to remove duplicates at the very end of my workflow ... before I send emails out ... :D
Sorry for the confusion.

serouche,

If you know SQL you could write a stored procedure that would identify
the duplicates and then update a separate field on the form (ie. Set an
Optional Checkbox field to 0).  Followed by a filter that would delete
each of the records which have a value in this checkbox field.
If you need users to be able to run this at anytime trigger it from an
Active Link.

Subject: Re: how to remove duplicate entries

Hi,

You could create a table-field that sorts its content on the field(s)
you
want to remove duplicates from. Also include the request-id in one
column.

Table Field with Columns:
- TblColValue
- TblColReqID

Create a display-only-temp-fields:
- TempPrevValue

Then you create Active Links for a table-loop-guide:
AL 1:
  Run If: $TblColValue$ = $TempPrevValue$
  Action Run Process: @@:Application-Delete-Entry "Form" "$TblColReqID$"
AL 2:
  Run If:
  Action Set Fields: TempPrevValue = $TblColValue$

Create the Guide and add the above Active Links:

Create an Active Link that calls the guide with Table Loop activated.

dear all,

I would like to clean-up duplicate entries in a character field.
I must use AL on the web.
How can I do this?
Through filters I would do something like "RUN PROCESS echo "MYFIELD"
|
sort | uniq" and that will do but through AL on the web I don't see.
Please help.
Thank you.
