This will delete duplicate rows
```
DELETE LU 
FROM   (SELECT *, 
               Row_number() 
                 OVER ( 
                   partition BY col1, col1, col3 
                   ORDER BY rowid DESC) [Row] 
        FROM   mytable) LU 
WHERE  [row] > 1 
```

1. SELECT the DISTINCT records into a New Table
2. TRUNCATE the Old Table
3. MERGE the New Table back into the Old Table
