>Hi, Is is possible to use an sql statement(s) to count and number duplicates? The original table looks something like this, showing an excerpt where there are three entries for one date:

SELECT * 
    FROM ch5 
    WHERE mdate IN (
        SELECT mdate FROM ch5 ;
        GROUP BY mdate ;
        HAVING COUNT(mdate) > 1)

>05/28/2013     v1
>05/28/2013     v1
