>Yes, this might not have been the best example to demonstrate it. Basically, there is a master table and it has one or several child records for each record. If we take the scenario that one master record has 5 child records, where each of them contains a textual field, the goal is to collect the first textual field value based on an order on AddDate, as well as the last value.

>AddDate Name
>05/05/2014 Michel Fournier
>06/05/2014 Michel Fournier
>15/06/2014 James Bond
>01/07/2014 James Bond
>10/10/2014 King Kong
