Crystal has a way to suppress duplicates, Is there a way of only showing duplicate fields?
 
You could suppress the fields which are the same as those in the previous record. This is done by right-clicking on the field in the Design View, choose Format Field, click the x-2 box to the right of Suppress, and then enter a formula such as this:

if previous({ado.order_numb}) = {ado.order_numb} then
True

With this formula, the order_numb will appear only if it is different than the order_numb in the previous record.

Group your report by whatever field it is that determines it is a duplicate. Then insert a count summary on that field. Finally, insert a group selection formula, Count({fieldname})>1. This will select only those items with more than 1 record.
