下面的查询用于删除重复的行。本例中的表以ID作为标识列，具有重复数据的列是Column1、Column2和Column3。

DELETE FROM TableName
WHERE  ID NOT IN (SELECT MAX(ID)
                  FROM   TableName
                  GROUP  BY Column1,
                            Column2,
                            Column3
                  /*Even if ID is not null-able SQL Server treats MAX(ID) as potentially
                    nullable. Because of semantics of NOT IN (NULL) including the clause
                    below can simplify the plan*/
                  HAVING MAX(ID) IS NOT NULL) 

下面的脚本显示GROUP BY、HAVING、ORDER BY在一个查询中的用法，并返回带有重复列及其计数的结果。

SELECT YourColumnName,
       COUNT(*) TotalCount
FROM   YourTableName
GROUP  BY YourColumnName
HAVING COUNT(*) > 1
ORDER  BY COUNT(*) DESC 

使用这个

WITH tblTemp as
(
SELECT ROW_NUMBER() Over(PARTITION BY Name,Department ORDER BY Name)
   As RowNumber,* FROM <table_name>
)
DELETE FROM tblTemp where RowNumber >1

从应用程序级别(不幸的是)。我同意防止重复的正确方法是在数据库级别上使用唯一的索引，但是在SQL Server 2005中，一个索引只能是900字节，而我的varchar(2048)字段打破了这一规定。

我不知道它的性能如何，但我认为您可以编写一个触发器来强制执行这一点，即使您不能直接使用索引。喜欢的东西:

-- given a table stories(story_id int not null primary key, story varchar(max) not null)
CREATE TRIGGER prevent_plagiarism 
ON stories 
after INSERT, UPDATE 
AS 
    DECLARE @cnt AS INT 

    SELECT @cnt = Count(*) 
    FROM   stories 
           INNER JOIN inserted 
                   ON ( stories.story = inserted.story 
                        AND stories.story_id != inserted.story_id ) 

    IF @cnt > 0 
      BEGIN 
          RAISERROR('plagiarism detected',16,1) 

          ROLLBACK TRANSACTION 
      END 

另外，varchar(2048)对我来说听起来很可疑(生活中有些东西是2048字节，但这很少见);它真的应该不是varchar(max)吗?

CREATE TABLE car(Id int identity(1,1), PersonId int, CarId int)

INSERT INTO car(PersonId,CarId)
VALUES(1,2),(1,3),(1,2),(2,4)

--SELECT * FROM car

;WITH CTE as(
SELECT ROW_NUMBER() over (PARTITION BY personid,carid order by personid,carid) as rn,Id,PersonID,CarId from car)

DELETE FROM car where Id in(SELECT Id FROM CTE WHERE rn>1)

DELETE
FROM
    table_name T1
WHERE
    rowid > (
        SELECT
            min(rowid)
        FROM
            table_name T2
        WHERE
            T1.column_name = T2.column_name
    );

我更喜欢子查询\having count(*) > 1解决方案内部连接，因为我发现它更容易阅读，它很容易变成一个SELECT语句来验证什么将被删除，然后再运行它。

--DELETE FROM table1 
--WHERE id IN ( 
     SELECT MIN(id) FROM table1 
     GROUP BY col1, col2, col3 
     -- could add a WHERE clause here to further filter
     HAVING count(*) > 1
--)
