  Initial Dataset:

  c1,c2,c3,date

  a,,,1/1/2014

  d,good,,1/2/2014

  x,,,1/3/2014

  z,,,1/4/2014

  d,,,1/5/2014

  There are few ways of doing this, here is a quick window function solution for SQL Server 2012/14

  

  USE tempdb;

  GO

  SET NOCOUNT ON;

  IF OBJECT_ID('dbo.TBL_LABEL') IS NOT NULL DROP TABLE dbo.TBL_LABEL;

  CREATE TABLE dbo.TBL_LABEL

  (

  c1 VARCHAR(5)

  ,c2 VARCHAR(10)

  ,c3 VARCHAR(10)

  ,[date] DATE

  );

  INSERT INTO dbo.TBL_LABEL(c1,c2,c3,[date])

  VALUES ('a' ,NULL ,NULL,'1/1/2014' )

  ,('d' ,'good' ,NULL,'1/2/2014' )

  ,('x' ,NULL ,NULL,'1/3/2014' )

  ,('z' ,NULL ,NULL,'1/4/2014' )

  ,('g' ,'good' ,NULL,'1/13/2014')

  ,('bn',NULL ,NULL,'1/14/2014');
