i mean one table have data's with redundancy...i want write query for select data's without redundancy|||My apologies for being thick, but by redundancy, do you mean duplicate records ?

Could you give a brief example from the table of records that are deemed redundant, then I can suggest a means of selecting them.

Cheers|||yes i mean duplication of records ...when we write a query that omit all dublication records from table and display them into another new table without dublication

Cheers|||There is some useful info on duplicate records in the following article.

I know it's to do with deleting duplicates, but it should give you some ideas.|||if it's a complete duplicate (meaning all columns are the same) you can simply include the keyword DISTINCT on your select

try:

select distinct * from tablename|||
