If you would like a coded solution, please provide sample table structure DDL, sample data in the form of INSERT statements for your sample table, and desired results based on the sample data provided.

The absence of evidence is not evidence of absence

The absence of consumable DDL, sample data and desired results is, however, evidence of the absence of my response

If I cut and paste from your answer into SSMS, I get syntax errors. I see no DDL or DML. You're not new to these forums, you should know what's required. But if you don't, please check out the following link – it explains how to do it:
