Problem updating latest value (date) column for a given key

Hi,

I have 2 relevant columns

ID and END_DATE

For each person in this table (identified by ID) there will many rows in the table, each representing a position held within the company. Each END_DATE is the END_DATE representing the date they left that position. I need a fast way (SQL or PL/SQL with or without new indexes) to update the latest END_DATE for each ID in the table.

Any ideas anyone.

Thanks for any help received .....
