Find duplicate row in table in SQL

1. Create Table

SET ANSI_NULLS ON

GO

SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON

GO

SET ANSI_PADDING ON

GO

CREATE TABLE [dbo].[tbl_Test](

[Id] [int] NULL,

[Name] [varchar](50) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NULL

) ON [PRIMARY]

GO

SET ANSI_PADDING OFF

2. Insert Record

INSERT INTO [Test].[dbo].[tbl_Test]([Id] ,[Name]) VALUES (1,‘a’)

INSERT INTO [Test].[dbo].[tbl_Test]([Id] ,[Name]) VALUES (2,‘b’)

INSERT INTO [Test].[dbo].[tbl_Test]([Id] ,[Name]) VALUES (3,‘c’)

INSERT INTO [Test].[dbo].[tbl_Test]([Id] ,[Name]) VALUES (1,‘a’)

INSERT INTO [Test].[dbo].[tbl_Test]([Id] ,[Name]) VALUES (3,‘c’)

INSERT INTO [Test].[dbo].[tbl_Test]([Id] ,[Name]) VALUES (4,‘m’)

INSERT INTO [Test].[dbo].[tbl_Test]([Id] ,[Name]) VALUES (5,‘p’)

INSERT INTO [Test].[dbo].[tbl_Test]([Id] ,[Name]) VALUES (4,‘m’)

INSERT INTO [Test].[dbo].[tbl_Test]([Id] ,[Name]) VALUES (6,‘d’)

INSERT INTO [Test].[dbo].[tbl_Test]([Id] ,[Name]) VALUES (7,‘y’)

INSERT INTO [Test].[dbo].[tbl_Test]([Id] ,[Name]) VALUES (8,‘o’)

INSERT INTO [Test].[dbo].[tbl_Test]([Id] ,[Name]) VALUES (9,‘f’)

3. Find the duplicate record on the basis on Name field

1)

SELECT DISTINCT * FROM dbo.tbl_Test A

WHERE 1<(SELECT COUNT(*) FROM tbl_Test B

WHERE A.nAME=B.NAME)ORDER BY A.NAME

2)

SELECT ID, NAME FROM dbo.tbl_Test

GROUP BY NAME,ID

HAVING COUNT(*)>1

SELECT CAST(-1 AS DATETIME)

A. 1900-01-01 00:00:00.000
B. 1899-01-01 00:00:00.000

F. The statement will generate an error. Only positive integer values can be converted to a DATETIME data type.

Your Answer : F

Correct Answer : C

Explanation:
A DATETIME data type is stored internally in SQL Server as two 4-byte integers. The first 4 bytes store the number of days before or after the base date of January 1, 1900. Given this, a value of 0 corresponds to January 1, 1900 and a value of -1 corresponds to 1 day before the base date, December 31, 1899.
