how to get most recent consecutive records with the same value

725150Nov 22 2010 — edited Dec 3 2010
Hi,

Can someone please help me to solve my problem?

Below is my table

Prod_Code-----Purchase_date---Inv_number-------Inv_amt
MS_AV16850------18/01/2005-----------6575947----------------7.93
MS_AV16850------22/07/2005-----------7034012----------------51.82
MS_AV16850------04/01/2006-----------8719618----------------51.82
MS_AV16850------20/06/2006-----------9515864----------------104.69
MS_AV16850------16/04/2007-----------10353759----------------189.29
MS_AV16850------30/05/2007-----------10689899----------------189.29
MS_AV16850------06/01/2008-----------1653821----------------65.49
MS_AV16850------22/02/2009-----------10866311----------------189.29

I want my query to show the rows that has most recent purchase dates with same amount in consecutive purchase date.

So from the table above, the query should display:

Prod_Code-----Purchase_date---Inv_number-------Inv_amt
MS_AV16850------16/04/2007-----------10353759----------------189.29
MS_AV16850------30/05/2007-----------10689899----------------189.29


It should not get

MS_AV16850------16/04/2007-----------10353759----------------189.29
MS_AV16850------30/05/2007-----------10689899----------------189.29
MS_AV16850------22/02/2009-----------10866311----------------189.29

because inv_number 10866311 has a prvevious inv_amount of 65.49.

and not get this

MS_AV16850------22/07/2005-----------7034012----------------51.82
MS_AV16850------04/01/2006-----------8719618----------------51.82

because they are not the most recent purchase date even if they have the same inv_amount.


Thanks in advance.
