Default ANY answer. Re: query to display only the distinct data and not the identical ones

SELECT c FROM tn GROUP BY c HAVING count(c) = 1;
This will give you all values that are present exactly once in the column.

This query will also work
select id from
(select id,count(*) count
from TableName
group by id)
where count=1;
