delete redundant entries. Of course, one cannot always blatantly
blow redundant records away w/o regard to which one it is that
you wish to keep. But, sometimes you can. Anybody developed
anything like this?

You don't reconfigure it. You do create a delete query and use this
one as its datasource.

MLH,
I think what you're after is a way to delete the *duplicate* entries but
still retain the *origonals*. I.e. keep ONE (and only one) version of every
unique record. This is a problem I have tried to address several times and
never come up with a 'one-step' solution. I think what Bob is suggesting
will blow away ALL records that have duplicates, which I'm guessing is not
what you want.
Sound reasonable? Ideas, anyone?

Bob's right. I definitely do not want to blow out all the records.
I NEED 1 of each. I don't need the duplicates.

Can anyone suggest an efficient way to eliminate duplicate entries
in a list? The naive approach below works fine, but is very slow
with lists containing tens of thousands of entries:

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
