Hi all,

I need to script a query to discard access logs that not exceeding a predetermined margin (eg. 2 seconds). That is, if each record was made by a user on a especific date / time, I don't want to get those who its date / time does not exceed the range compared with the date / time of the previous record. I think an example is clearer.

Example:

LogIndex, UserID, Date / Time

1. 01551, 20.02.2013 17:41:45.000
2. 01551, 20.02.2013 17:41:45.900 *
3. 01551, 20.02.2013 17:41:46.150 *
4. 01551, 20.02.2013 20:41:47.000

5. 01552, 02/20/2013 17:42:45.000
6. 01552, 20.02.2013 17:42:46.000 *
7. 01552, 02/20/2013 19:45:45.000

*: Records to discard because its date / time does not exceed the margin of 2 seconds over the previous record. In the first case two records should be discarted because both not exceed this margin.


Here's the code that creates the temporary table and adds the previous records to test:

CREATE TABLE # TEMP (LogIndex int, UserID nvarchar (10), LogTime datetime)

insert into # temp select 1, '01551 ', '20 / 02/2013 17:41:45.000'
insert into # temp select 2, '01551 ', '20 / 02/2013 17:41:45.900'
insert into # temp select 3, '01551 ', '20 / 02/2013 17:41:46.150'
insert into # temp select 4, '01551 ', '20 / 02/2013 20:41:47.000'
insert into # temp select 5, '01552 ', '20 / 02/2013 17:42:45.000'
insert into # temp select 6, '01552 ', '20 / 02/2013 17:42:46.000'
insert into # temp select 7, '01552 ', '20 / 02/2013 19:45:45.000'

select * from # temp

DROP TABLE # temp

Thanks in advance!

[code]SELECT a.*
FROM #temp a
WHERE NOT EXISTS
(
SELECT * FROM #temp b
WHERE b.LogIndex = a.LogIndex-1 AND
DATEDIFF(ss,b.Logtime,a.Logtime) < 2
)[/code]

[code]
select LogIndex,UserID,LogTime
FROM
(
select *,Row_Number() over (partition by UserID,((DATEDIFF(ss,'20000101',logtime)-1)/2*2) +1 ORDER BY LogTime) AS Rn from #temp
)t
WHERE Rn=1


output
-------------------------
LogIndex UserID LogTime
-----------------------------------------
1 01551 2013-02-20 17:41:45.000
4 01551 2013-02-20 20:41:47.000
5 01552 2013-02-20 17:42:45.000
7 01552 2013-02-20 19:45:45.000
