Hi

This one's eluding me at the moment - can any creative minds help?

I have a log table where timestamped transactions are recorded. 
Typically they occur every 3 - 5 minutes (never less than every 2 
minutes) and there is sequence of 4 or 5 spanning typically 4 - 10 
seconds like this:

05/10/07 12:49:54
05/10/07 12:49:56
05/10/07 12:49:59
05/10/07 12:50:00

I need a neat SQL select (assuming an SQL selct can do it?) that will 
group each 'burst' of transactions and give me, for each group, the 
start time and elapsed seconds.  So for example the result for the above 
would be

Start: 05/10/07 12:49:54
Duration: 6 secs

Any takers?
