i have a table that have around 10k rows, with a column that have unique values, i import these from MySQL with a ODBC connector, and the first 2 columns are like it follow:
I sorted A-Z and have the same order as the MySQL data and all unique values, but when i change the type of data in several columns, i get some data replaced and duplicated, and the column distribution accuses like it follow:
So when i sort that result, i see duplicated values out of nowhere and some data get replaced, but i thought it was visual, because in the dashboards all seems right, no inconsistent data... untill i added another table that i tried to make a relationship one-many, choosing the ID to another one that has multiple rows from same ID, getting an error that its invalid, and searched why, and came to the conclution that this was the problem, duplicated rows out of nowhere only changing data type negates me the chance to make a one-many relationship because there are duplicates in the first one.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Would it work if you just right click the column with duplicated rows =>add as new query =>remove duplicates in the list tool => convert to table. After done, you can create a many to one relationship with the new distinct table.
