I'm about to create a piece of a project which which will be used to check for errors in data entry. Every 500 records entered will prompt the user to check their work. I have all of the triggers set up already. The database is all Oracle, PHP 4.0.4 (1381 build). What I would like to do is display all of the 500 records (no problem) and (here's where I could use some advice) highlight any records with a duplicate value in one particular field. Should I load all of the data into an array? Should I skim through all the records, take notes, reset, and then run through them again? Should I run a separate statement which searches for dupes and then match them against the whole body of records? I don't want code, just a voice of experience which could start me off right.
