It seems that you need a correlated subquery - a loop for every row, that
tests whether there are equal values.
SELECT oid, mycolumn FROM mytable a
WHERE mycolumn IN
(SELECT oid, mycolumn FROM mytable b
WHERE a.oid <> b.oid)
Or may be, join with the same table. Not sure what is better in this
situation.
SELECT oid, mycolumn FROM mytable a, mytable b
WHERE a.oid <> b.oid AND
a.mycolumn = b.mycolumn
In both cases "a.oid <> b.oid" excludes the same row from comparison (I
am pretty sure that in the same row a.mycolumn = b.column :).
