3 highest sal:

select top 3 sal from employee order by sal;


select * from (select * from emp order by sal) where rownum<3 ;
select * from (select distinct salary from ran1 order by salary desc)where rown
um<=3;;
To find duplicates in table:
SELECT COUNT(*), COLUMN_A, COLUMN_B
FROM TABLE_B
GROUP BY COLUMN_A, COLUMN_B
HAVING COUNT(*)>1;
or
SELECT * FROM emp a
WHERE rowid = (SELECT max(rowid) FROM emp
WHERE empno = a.empno
GROUP BY empno
HAVING count(*) >1)
i want to select records that have same duplicate id in table A?
select id from A group by id having count(*) > 1
to delete duplicate rows:
delete from
table_name a
where
a.rowid >
any (select b.rowid
from
table_name b
where
a.col1 = b.col1
and
a.col2 = b.col2
)
;

MERGE STATEMENT - INSERT OR UPDATE ("UPSERT")
merge is a new sql statement introduced in oracle9i to update or insert rows sel
