If the timestamps are unique you could try including a subquery which gets the next lowest date

eg. (not sure if this is valid SQL syntax, I'm not meant to be on the PC :) Select data, datetimefield, (select top 1 datetimefield from table1 where datetimefield < A.datetimefield order by datetimefield desc) as prevdatetime from table1 as A order by datetimefield

then you can use the previous date/time to calc whether to show the date/time for not

No, I'm afraid not. What's your final output? If its a report, you may want to consider a reporting tool ( Jasper/BIRT/etc ) to satisfy this requirement.

        You're probably after something like the BREAK directive found
        in SQL*Plus.
        See:
        http://docs.oracle.com/cd/A84870_01/doc/sqlplus.816/a75664/ch42.htm
        SQL> BREAK ON DEPTNO
        SQL> SELECT DEPTNO, ENAME, SAL
          2  FROM EMP
          3  WHERE SAL < 2500
          4  ORDER BY DEPTNO;
        SQL*Plus displays the following output:
            DEPTNO ENAME             SAL
        ---------- ----------- ---------
                10 CLARK            2450
                   MILLER           1300
                20 SMITH             800
                   ADAMS            1100
                30 ALLEN            1600
                   JAMES             950
                   TURNER           1500
                   WARD             1250

    Yes, that is exactly what I want. This is not possible in H2?
