What other fields do you have in the table?
If you have 8 records with the same number, which one of the eight do you want
to keep? Or does it matter at all.
Is this a one time process? If so, it can be done manually.

Can you post the SQL statement of the query that gives you all the duplicates?

Open the query in design mode
Select SQL from the view menu
Copy and paste the code.
