This could be slow on large tables. A better way might be to turn the
aggregated list into a derived table and join it back to the original table
to get the related record info - post back if you need that one instead.
Otherwise this should work:


select r.id, min(r.result) as minResult,
(
select r2.[date]
from results r2
where r2.id = r.id
and r2.result =
(
select min(r3.result)
from results r3
where r3.id = r.id
)
) as minResultDate,
(
select r2.result
from results r2
where r2.id = r.id
and r2.[date] =
(
select min(r3.[date])
from results r3
where r3.id = r.id
)
) as firstResult,
max(r.result) as maxResult,
(
select r2.[date]
from results r2
where r2.id = r.id
and r2.result =
(
select max(r3.result)
from results r3
where r3.id = r.id
)
) as maxResultDate
from results as r
group by r.id
order by r.id
