Answer / tidda
This can be done by using Sort.
1) If the first duplicate is to be kept, we use SUM
FIELDS=NONE
2) If none of the duplicates are to be kept, using SYNCTOOL
or ICETOOL, use the NODUPS option.

We can also use the ICETOOL SELECT Operator along with its
operands for removing duplicates.
