• WHY???

    you can use the following

    [font="Courier New"]SELECT

    x,

    y,

    COUNT(y) AS How_Many_Times

    FROM t1

    GROUP BY x, y

    HAVING (COUNT(y) > 1)[/font]

    I don't understand 1.why do you have to add a rowid!! 2.what is the purpose of adding a third column (z) with a default value of zero!!!
