Subject: Converting large columns into a single row
Posted By: rahulpokharna Post Date: 1/8/2006 1:35:56 PM
I want to convert the columns of varchar(400) into a single row. i tried using coalesce but it doesnt works for large amount of data
can anyone please help me in this.

this is the snapshot of table which i am using:---

D0201 as [Nominee Emp No]
D0202 as [Nominee DU Code]
D0203 as [Nominee Project Code]
D0204 as [Nominee DM Email ID]
D0205 as [Nominee Location]
D0206 as [Nominator Email ID]
D0307 as [Specialized domain competency (eg. RETL, Banking, Insurance)]
D0308 as [Quantify the benefits (for e.g. Due to domain competency the KT was given in a day and this resulted]
D0309 as [Any domain specific certifications]
D0310 as [Paper presentation in domain area ]
D0323 as [K-Shop Material]

the coalesce is able to convert into a single row of length 256 characters max, whereas in my case it will go beyond 2000.
Any pointers will be of great help.

Regards
Rahul Pokharna

What is the code you are using?  Why not just concatenate into a column or variable of VarChar(8000)?
