[5] => 0000-00-00 00:00:00
[newvalue] => 0000-00-00 00:00:00
[6] => checked_out_time
[field] => checked_out_time
[7] => 0

[8] => 2010-05-11 17:46:35
[changedone] => 2010-05-11 17:46:35
)
)
Now here u can see that the index "field" has repeated values i.e. "checked_out" and "checked_out_time" other indexes have single occurrence, now what should I do to select/grab the first occurrence of the repetitive values only?
