If all columns are identical and you wanted to keep just only one of the unique rows.. I first assume that you must be having the data already either in a flat file or in a "multiset" teradata table .... Whatever..

Step1: bring it to a flat file

Step2: "sort" it and "uniq" it if you wanted to keep it in a "multiset" table.... (I don't know why you'd want to do it though)

If you wanted to keep it in a SET table then no SORT/UNIQ necessary

Step3: Just Fastload it straight into an empty (SET or MULTISET) teradata table

hope that helps.....
