Select distinct into temp table, then select each row from temp table and
delete from your_table where
field="dupl value" and id<>temp.id (in abstract syntax)

Subject: Finding Duplicates and Deleting
Does anyone know how to find duplicates in a table and deleting them. I
can't figure out how to structure the query.
