Can anyone help me ?

I have stock transaction data. I need to calculate each second average
trading volume. How can I to produce a new variable such as volavg and
put average volume in the last one of the same second ?

8       1-Jul-05        10:02:26        5.8     1000

10      1-Jul-05        10:02:26        5.8     500
11      1-Jul-05        10:02:26        5.8     8789
12      1-Jul-05        10:02:26        5.8     2000
13      1-Jul-05        10:02:35        5.8     2583
14      1-Jul-05        10:02:36        5.8     5000


The result that I want:
