Any help is very much appreciated!

I have an "orders" table with an "item_number" field which has many duplicate records.

I want to select the top ten duplicated item numbers in this orders table and would also like to get the total number of times each record was found in the table.

I'm putting together a dynamic webpage, with PERL and MYSQL, which lists the top 10 selling images at
Here is the SQL statement that I have so far:

Code:
SELECT item_number FROM orders LIMIT 10

Code:
SELECT item_number
     , COUNT(*) AS daCount
  FROM orders
GROUP
    BY item_number
HAVING daCount > 1
ORDER
    BY daCount DESC LIMIT 10
