Could this do:
SELECT a.ordernr, a.syscreated,
oldselcode = a.old_value, newselcode = a.new_value,
oldstatus = b.old_value, newstatus = b.new_value
FROM ordlog a
JOIN ordlog b ON a.ordernr = b.ordernr
AND datediff(seconds, a.syscreated, b.syscreated) <= 1
WHERE a.varname = 'selcode'
AND b.varname = 'status'
AND coalesce(a.old_value, '') <> coalesce(a.new_value, '')
AND a.old_value = 'A'
AND b.new_value = 'B'
Note: this is an untested query.
If the does not return the expected results, I suggest that you post:
o CREATE TABLE statments for the involved table(s).
o INSERT statements with sample data.
o The desired output given the sample.
