Retrieving records fulfilling a condition using GROUP BY

Question

I\'d like to only select the rows where the count is greater than 1 (in other words the duplicates) right now from a few thousand records I am mostly seeing 1s with a few 2s

Answer 1

Use the Having clause

SELECT count( * ) AS `Number` , GI . *
FROM `GeneralInformation` AS GI
GROUP BY `FirstName` , `Surname` 
HAVING count( * ) > 1

Answer 2

SELECT count( * ) AS `Number` , GI . *
FROM `GeneralInformation` AS GI
GROUP BY `FirstName` , `Surname` 
HAVING count(*)>1
