Find duplicate records in MySQL

Question

I want to pull out duplicate records in a MySQL Database. This can be done with:

SELECT address, count(id) as cnt FROM list
GROUP BY address HAVING cnt >         


        

Answer 1

I tried the best answer chosen for this question, but it confused me somewhat. I actually needed that just on a single field from my table. The following example from this link worked out very well for me:

SELECT COUNT(*) c,title FROM `data` GROUP BY title HAVING c > 1;
