Grouping with partition and over in TSql - sql

Question

I have a simple table
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Tooling](
[Id] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[Name] [nvarchar](50) NOT NULL,
[Status] [int] NOT NULL,
[DateFinished] [datetime] NULL,
[Tooling] [nvarchar](50) NULL,
[Updated] [datetime] NULL,
) ON [PRIMARY]
with following values
SET IDENTITY_INSERT [dbo].[Tooling] ON
GO
INSERT [dbo].[Tooling] ([Id], [Name], [Status], [DateFinished], [Tooling], [Updated]) VALUES (1, N'Large', 0, NULL, NULL, CAST(N'2015-05-05 00:00:00.000' AS DateTime))
GO
INSERT [dbo].[Tooling] ([Id], [Name], [Status], [DateFinished], [Tooling], [Updated]) VALUES (2, N'Large', 1, NULL, N'1', CAST(N'2015-05-10 00:00:00.000' AS DateTime))
GO
INSERT [dbo].[Tooling] ([Id], [Name], [Status], [DateFinished], [Tooling], [Updated]) VALUES (3, N'Small', 0, NULL, N'2', CAST(N'2015-05-11 00:00:00.000' AS DateTime))
GO
INSERT [dbo].[Tooling] ([Id], [Name], [Status], [DateFinished], [Tooling], [Updated]) VALUES (4, N'Large', 2, NULL, N'1', CAST(N'2015-05-12 00:00:00.000' AS DateTime))
GO
INSERT [dbo].[Tooling] ([Id], [Name], [Status], [DateFinished], [Tooling], [Updated]) VALUES (5, N'Large', 2, NULL, N'2', CAST(N'2015-05-12 00:00:00.000' AS DateTime))
GO
INSERT [dbo].[Tooling] ([Id], [Name], [Status], [DateFinished], [Tooling], [Updated]) VALUES (6, N'Large', 1, NULL, N'1', CAST(N'2015-05-13 00:00:00.000' AS DateTime))
GO
INSERT [dbo].[Tooling] ([Id], [Name], [Status], [DateFinished], [Tooling], [Updated]) VALUES (7, N'Large', 1, NULL, N'2', CAST(N'2015-05-14 00:00:00.000' AS DateTime))
GO
INSERT [dbo].[Tooling] ([Id], [Name], [Status], [DateFinished], [Tooling], [Updated]) VALUES (8, N'Small', 1, CAST(N'2015-05-15 00:00:00.000' AS DateTime), N'2', CAST(N'2015-05-15 00:00:00.000' AS DateTime))
GO
SET IDENTITY_INSERT [dbo].[Tooling] OFF
I want to create a view of the table that looks like its an entirely own table.
SELECT Id, Name, Status, DateFinished
FROM Tooling t order by t.id
If i run that I would like that the records with id 5 and 7 should be excluded since they dont change in the selected set from the previous row.
I had an idea to solve this by using, ROW_NUMBER() over partition
And by using group by but thats seems to incorrect(Could not to get it to work at all)
How do I group it when the should be grouped on that the value change and not the value it contains?
Any suggestions to solve this?
My end goal is also try to convert this to linq to entities...

Answer 1

OK, supposing it's ordered by id
select *
from (
select *, rng = row_number() over (partition by grp order by id)
from (
select *, grp = row_number() over (order by id) - row_number() over (partition by Name, Status, DateFinished order by id)
from tooling ) g
) gn
where rng = 1
order by id
