how to extract duplicates from a hugh database quickly

I am working with a table that contains 100,000,000 records.  I want to
quickly filter out all of the duplicate records (w/o checking the date) and
then display the maximum date for the duplicates.  Example



rec1        1/1/01 fieldValue1 fieldValue2
rec x   12/30/00 fieldValue1 fieldValue2


           ...



Create a recordset listing the latest (relative to the date) duplicate
records quickly.



Any ideas
