--SQL查询如下:

--按GID分组,查每个分组中Date最新的前2条记录

select * from #T

--1.字段ID唯一时:
Select * FROM #T AS T Where ID IN(Select TOP 3 ID FROM #T Where GID=T.GID orDER BY Date DESC)

--2.如果ID不唯一时:
Select * FROM #T AS T Where 2>(Select COUNT(*) FROM #T Where GID=T.GID AND Date>T.Date)

--SQL Server 2005 使用新方法

--3.使用ROW_NUMBER()进行排位分组
Select ID,GID,Author,Title,Date
FROM
(
   Select rid=ROW_NUMBER() OVER(PARTITION BY GID orDER BY Date DESC),*
   FROM #T
) AS T
Where rid<=2

--4.使用APPLY
Select DISTINCT b.*
FROM #T AS a
CROSS APPLY
(
    Select TOP(2) * FROM #T Where a.GID=GID orDER BY Date DESC
) AS b


select * from #T
