Can you elaborate your question? Is your dataset contains unique columns with keys? If you do not have duplicate data then may be possible to find using extract and join(using having min and max date value).

I don't think there's a (good) way of doing this without using user writen code.
If this is something you wish to do repeatedly, create a user written transformation.
Are your source data stored in SAS datasets?

I've never had occasion to use Data Integration Studio.  But the DATA step code below seems extremely simple:

data want;
  do ptr=1,last;
    set sashelp.class nobs=last  point=ptr;
    output;
  end;
  stop;
run;
