Is there a way to remove duplicate records quickly? Possibly a query?

Thanks,
 
here is a way of finding duplicates, do with it as you like

SELECT columns(can't be * and must include the column with duplicates)
FROM table
WHERE (((column with dups) In (SELECT [column with dups] FROM
As Tmp GROUP BY [column with dups] HAVING Count(*)>1 )))
ORDER BY column with dups
