finding duplicates

quick easy querstion:
I have an inventory table in a datbase and each record has
a serial number. what is the sql code to find duplicates.
tiaSee following example:
create table #cartype(manufacturer varchar(500), score int)
insert into #cartype values('Toyota', 1 )
insert into #cartype values('Toyota', 2)
insert into #cartype values('Toyota', 3)
insert into #cartype values('Honda', 2)
insert into #cartype values('Honda', 5)
insert into #cartype values('Honda', 8)
insert into #cartype values('GE', 1)
insert into #cartype values('GE', 3)
insert into #cartype values('GE', 9)
insert into #cartype values('GE1', 6)
Following query will give you manufacturers that are appearing more than
once.
select manufacturer from #cartype
group by manufacturer
having count(*) > 1
--Following is the query to get the complete row details
select a.* from #cartype a inner join
(select manufacturer from #cartype
group by manufacturer
having count(*) > 1) b
on a.manufacturer = b.manufacturer

And if you want the actual rows:
SELECT * FROM inventory i
INNER JOIN (
SELECT serial_number FROM inventory
GROUP BY serial_number
HAVING COUNT(*) > 1) AS j
ON i.serial_number = j.serial_number

I think you are using wrong column name, make sure all the column names that
you use in the query exists in the table.(may be some spelling mistake)

you leave them of you should be ok. Note that I last used Access quite a few
years ago, so don't bank on it :-)

Find the serial no from the computer

I lose the original box of SQL server 2000 eng. How can I find the serial
no. from the Server which installed SQL server 2000 before. Thanks much!!Run 'REGEDIT' from Windows Start--> Run.
Traverse the following chain:
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
SOFTWARE
Microsoft
Microsoft SQL Server
80
Registration"
The "Registration" entry has the product ID. You can also
get the CD-key from here.
