but the obvious solution would be

Declare @tableA table ( startdate datetime, Enddate datetime, ID int)


insert into @tableA
select '2014-01-01', '2014-01-31', 12345 ID	union all
select '2014-02-01', '2014-02-28', 12345	union all
select '2014-03-03', '2014-03-25', 12345	union all
select '2014-04-01', '2014-04-30', 12345	union all
select '2014-05-01', '2014-05-31', 12345	union all
select '2014-07-01', '2014-07-31', 12345



select ID, min(cdate) as startdate, max(cdate) as enddate
from (
select startdate as cdate, MONTH(startdate) as mon, ID
from @tableA
union all
select enddate as cdate, Month(enddate) as mon, ID
from @tableA
) Z

Group by ID, mon
