Hello again,

here is my search result:

_time ID1 ID2
1.1.09 30122 1
1.1.09 30122 1
1.1.09 30127 2
1.1.09 30128 2
1.1.09 30129 2
1.1.09 30129 2
1.1.09 30130 3
1.1.09 30131 3

I'd like to have something like this:

_time ID1 ID2
1.1.09 30122 1
1.1.09 30122 1
1.1.09 30127 2
1.1.09 30127 2
1.1.09 30127 2
1.1.09 30127 2
1.1.09 30130 3
1.1.09 30130 3

ID2 shows when ID1 should change the value. All events that have the same ID2 should get the first value from ID1 for that group.

I hope someone can help me.

Thanks.

I created a CSV using your first resultset and tested it.

Try this

Your search terms... | eventstats first(ID1) as temp_id1 by ID2 | fields - ID1 | rename temp_id1 as ID1
