  Here's a recursive CTE that returns the values you want.  Seems you wants the contiguous keys and ignore all the noise in between

  
Drop table if exists #dimP
go

  CREATE TABLE #dimP (

  Hi Mike, 

  I just ran it for a large set of records and it looks like the query is taking a lot of time. I did use the below at the end of my query but to no success.Please help.

  option (maxrecursion 0)

  Just to understand better have you used this option (maxrecursion 0) in your cte code?. And after adding that you experienced that queries take a lot of time to complete/never complete?

  If yes then,it could be a condition which does an infinite loop in your CTE code.

  what happens when you set maxrecursion to 5 or a lower number

  Thanks
  George

  Hi Mike, 

  I just ran it for a large set of records and it looks like the query is taking a lot of time. I did use the below at the end of my query but to no success.Please help.

  option (maxrecursion 0)

  Just to understand better have you used this option (maxrecursion 0) in your cte code?. And after adding that you experienced that queries take a lot of time to complete/never complete?

  If yes then,it could be a condition which does an infinite loop in your CTE code.

  what happens when you set maxrecursion to 5 or a lower number

  Thanks
  George

  The query runs in an infinite loop when i run using option (maxrecursion 0) and when i use option (maxrecursion 5) or option (maxrecursion 32767) it gives the below error:

  Msg 530, Level 16, State 1, Line 2
  The statement terminated. The maximum recursion 32767 has been exhausted before statement completion.

  So there is atleast one pCode whose condition falls into a infinite loop. Can you provide the records of the pCode and the corresponding insert statements on which it is stuck.

  I have attached a file with insert statements for all records.    Pcode,Pkey,RowEffectivedate and RowEnddate.
  Unable to identify at which record it is failing.
