select field1,count(*) from table
group by field1
having count(*) > 1;

or if you are sure you want to retrieve 4,5,6,7 and 8th record you can use the rownum between 4 and 8 this might wirk.

Hai Ramana,
Good morning.

1) For the first question, this is the query.

Suppose I have a table TEST,

SQL> select * from test;

MYDATE NAME1 NAME2 NAME3
--------- -------------------- -------------------- --------------------
02-MAR-99 A B C
03-AUG-00 W R E
18-JUL-00 WEWE GHH FDFD
17-MAY-00 GIRI DHAR MAY
02-MAR-99 A B C

And this query has to return me the duplicate rows in that table.

SQL> select * from test a where rowid not in (select max(rowid) from test b
2 where a.mydate = b.mydate and a.name1=b.name1 and a.name2=b.name2 and a.name3=b.name3);

IF any one can suggest a better query, I would be thankful as practically it may be
Difficult to join all the columns. If we have any primary key, then I don’t think we have that
Problem of joining all the columns, but here I assume that it is a plain table without any primary key
And this is the output.

MYDATE NAME1 NAME2 NAME3
--------- -------------------- -------------------- --------------------
02-MAR-99 A B C

2) For the second question, the query is as follows:-

Suppose if you want to retrive the 3rd record in the table,

select * from test where rownum <= 3
minus
select * from test where rownum < 3;

Change the number 3 with the number of record (4th or 5th ) you want to retrieve from the table.

Hope This Helps.

Cheers,
Giridhar Kodakalla
