Hi All,

I have a table like below (raw table), which shows count of request per 4 hours from two services over a period of two days. I need to find the count values of ServiceA and ServiceB on each day, when the combined request is at peak per day. That will be the values below.

Peak values:-

1/01/2014 4:00  56  89  145
2/01/2014 8:00  56  78  134

Raw Table:-

_time   ServiceA    ServiceB    Total
1/01/2014 0:00  45  56  101
1/01/2014 4:00  56  89  145
1/01/2014 8:00  78  54  132
1/01/2014 12:00 41  11  52
1/01/2014 16:00 23  23  46
1/01/2014 20:00 56  58  114
2/01/2014 0:00  38  56  94
2/01/2014 4:00  54  41  95
2/01/2014 8:00  56  78  134
2/01/2014 12:00 11  23  34
2/01/2014 16:00 23  45  68
2/01/2014 20:00 58  56  114
3/01/2014 0:00  80  49  129

Any ideas how to do it ???

Regards

KK
