学习sql有一段时间了,发现在我建了一个用来测试的表(没有建索引)中出现了许多的重复记录。后来总结了一些删除重复记录的方法,在Oracle中,可以通过唯一rowid实现删除重复记录;还可以建临时表来实现...这个只提到其中的几种简单实用的方法,希望可以和大家分享(以表employee为例)。 SQL> desc employee 
 Name                                      Null?    Type
 ----------------------------------------- -------- ------------------ 
emp_id                                                NUMBER(10)
emp_name                                           VARCHAR2(20) 
salary                                                  NUMBER(10,2) 
 
 
可以通过下面的语句查询重复的记录: 
SQL> select * from employee; 
 
    EMP_ID EMP_NAME                                  SALARY 
---------- ---------------------------------------- ---------- 
         1 sunshine                                      10000 
         1 sunshine                                      10000 
         2 semon                                         20000 
         2 semon                                         20000 
         3 xyz                                           30000 
         2 semon                                         20000 
 
SQL> select distinct * from employee; 
    EMP_ID EMP_NAME                                     SALARY 
---------- ---------------------------------------- ---------- 
         1 sunshine                                      10000 
         2 semon                                         20000 
         3 xyz                                             30000 
SQL>  select * from employee group by emp_id,emp_name,salary having count (*)>1 
    EMP_ID EMP_NAME                                     SALARY 
---------- ---------------------------------------- ---------- 
         1 sunshine                                      10000 
         2 semon                                          20000 
SQL> select * from employee e1 
where rowid in (select max(rowid) from employe e2 
 where e1.emp_id=e2.emp_id and 
  e1.emp_name=e2.emp_name and e1.salary=e2.salary); 
 
    EMP_ID EMP_NAME                                     SALARY 
---------- ---------------------------------------- ---------- 
         1 sunshine                                      10000 
         3 xyz                                             30000 
         2 semon                                         20000 
 
 
2. 删除的几种方法: 
 
(1)通过建立临时表来实现 
SQL>create table temp_emp as (select distinct * from employee)  
SQL> truncate table employee; (清空employee表的数据) 
SQL> insert into employee select * from temp_emp;  (再将临时表里的内容插回来) 
 
( 2)通过唯一rowid实现删除重复记录.在Oracle中,每一条记录都有一个rowid,rowid在整个数据库中是唯一的,rowid确定了每条记录是在Oracle中的哪一个数据文件、块、行上。在重复的记录中,可能所有列的内容都相同,但rowid不会相同,所以只要确定出重复记录中那些具有最大或最小rowid的就可以了,其余全部删除。 
SQL>delete from employee e2 where rowid not in (
        select max(e1.rowid) from employee e1 where 
        e1.emp_id=e2.emp_id and e1.emp_name=e2.emp_name and e1.salary=e2.salary);--这里用min(rowid)也可以。 
 
SQL>delete from employee e2 where rowid <(
        select max(e1.rowid) from employee e1 where 
        e1.emp_id=e2.emp_id and e1.emp_name=e2.emp_name and 
                  e1.salary=e2.salary); 
 
(3)也是通过rowid,但效率更高。 
SQL>delete from employee where rowid not in (
        select max(t1.rowid) from employee t1 group by 
         t1.emp_id,t1.emp_name,t1.salary);--这里用min(rowid)也可以。 
 
    EMP_ID EMP_NAME                                     SALARY 
---------- ---------------------------------------- ---------- 
         1 sunshine                                      10000 
         3 xyz                                             30000 
         2 semon                                         20000 
 
  
 
SQL> desc employee 
 Name                                      Null?    Type
 ----------------------------------------- -------- ------------------ 
emp_id                                                NUMBER(10)
emp_name                                           VARCHAR2(20) 
salary                                                  NUMBER(10,2) 
 
 
可以通过下面的语句查询重复的记录: 
SQL> select * from employee; 
 
    EMP_ID EMP_NAME                                  SALARY 
---------- ---------------------------------------- ---------- 
         1 sunshine                                      10000 
         1 sunshine                                      10000 
         2 semon                                         20000 
         2 semon                                         20000 
         3 xyz                                           30000 
         2 semon                                         20000 
 
SQL> select distinct * from employee; 
    EMP_ID EMP_NAME                                     SALARY
