Susan,

Try this

Select Columns: NAME, Count(*)
>From Tables: YourTable
Group By: NAME
Sort By: 2 Desc

That will give you a unique list of all the names in your table, sorted by
the second column (Count) so that those with duplicate entries will show up
first.

Hope it helps,

Subject: MI query one column


Does any one know how to structure a query so that values in one column can
be compared against one another?  

For Example:

NAME
Smith
Jones
Miller
Jones
Washington
Jefferson

I then want to know that Jones was entered twice.

thanks ahead of time.
