Possibly. It depends on whether the OP wanted to see which rows had
duplicates, or to actually *see* the duplicates, in which case a join
would be needed. (It would not, however, be quite the join shown
below... one query would find the rows with duplicates and yield a
temporary table, and then the second would join that table back to the
original to find the details.
