U kunt een tabel maken met 1 record van elk van de dubbele records:verwijder vervolgens alle dup-records uit de tabel personen en plaats de dup-records opnieuw.

-- Setup for example
create table people (fname varchar(10), lname varchar(10));

insert into people values ('Bob', 'Newhart');
insert into people values ('Bob', 'Newhart');
insert into people values ('Bill', 'Cosby');
insert into people values ('Jim', 'Gaffigan');
insert into people values ('Jim', 'Gaffigan');
insert into people values ('Adam', 'Sandler');

-- Show table with duplicates
select * from people;

-- Create table with one version of each duplicate record
create table dups as 
    select distinct fname, lname, count(*) 
    from people group by fname, lname 
    having count(*) > 1;

-- Delete all matching duplicate records
delete people from people inner join dups 
on people.fname = dups.fname AND 
   people.lname = dups.lname;

-- Insert single record of each dup back into table
insert into people select fname, lname from dups;

-- Show Fixed table
select * from people;
