让我们变得非常简单:

SELECT stuff(
    (
    select ', ' + x from (SELECT 'xxx' x union select 'yyyy') tb 
    FOR XML PATH('')
    )
, 1, 2, '')

替换这一行:

select ', ' + x from (SELECT 'xxx' x union select 'yyyy') tb

你的疑问。

没有看到任何交叉应用的答案，也不需要XML提取。这是凯文·费尔柴尔德的一个略有不同的版本。在更复杂的查询中使用它更快更容易:

   select T.ID
,MAX(X.cl) NameValues
 from #YourTable T
 CROSS APPLY 
 (select STUFF((
    SELECT ', ' + [Name] + ':' + CAST([Value] AS VARCHAR(MAX))
    FROM #YourTable 
    WHERE (ID = T.ID) 
    FOR XML PATH(''))
  ,1,2,'')  [cl]) X
  GROUP BY T.ID

使用Stuff和for xml路径操作符将行连接到字符串:Group By两列——>

CREATE TABLE #YourTable ([ID] INT, [Name] CHAR(1), [Value] INT)

INSERT INTO #YourTable ([ID],[Name],[Value]) VALUES (1,'A',4)
INSERT INTO #YourTable ([ID],[Name],[Value]) VALUES (1,'B',8)
INSERT INTO #YourTable ([ID],[Name],[Value]) VALUES (1,'B',5)
INSERT INTO #YourTable ([ID],[Name],[Value]) VALUES (2,'C',9)

-- retrieve each unique id and name columns and concatonate the values into one column
SELECT 
  [ID], 
  STUFF((
    SELECT ', ' + [Name] + ':' + CAST([Value] AS VARCHAR(MAX)) -- CONCATONATES EACH APPLICATION : VALUE SET      
    FROM #YourTable 
    WHERE (ID = Results.ID and Name = results.[name] ) 
    FOR XML PATH(''),TYPE).value('(./text())[1]','VARCHAR(MAX)')
  ,1,2,'') AS NameValues
FROM #YourTable Results
GROUP BY ID


SELECT 
  [ID],[Name] , --these are acting as the group by clause
  STUFF((
    SELECT ', '+  CAST([Value] AS VARCHAR(MAX)) -- CONCATONATES THE VALUES FOR EACH ID NAME COMBINATION 
    FROM #YourTable 
    WHERE (ID = Results.ID and Name = results.[name] ) 
    FOR XML PATH(''),TYPE).value('(./text())[1]','VARCHAR(MAX)')
  ,1,2,'') AS  NameValues
FROM #YourTable Results
GROUP BY ID, name

DROP TABLE #YourTable

不需要光标…while循环就足够了。

------------------------------
-- Setup
------------------------------

DECLARE @Source TABLE
(
  id int,
  Name varchar(30),
  Value int
)

DECLARE @Target TABLE
(
  id int,
  Result varchar(max) 
)


INSERT INTO @Source(id, Name, Value) SELECT 1, 'A', 4
INSERT INTO @Source(id, Name, Value) SELECT 1, 'B', 8
INSERT INTO @Source(id, Name, Value) SELECT 2, 'C', 9


------------------------------
-- Technique
------------------------------

INSERT INTO @Target (id)
SELECT id
FROM @Source
GROUP BY id

DECLARE @id int, @Result varchar(max)
SET @id = (SELECT MIN(id) FROM @Target)

WHILE @id is not null
BEGIN
  SET @Result = null

  SELECT @Result =
    CASE
      WHEN @Result is null
      THEN ''
      ELSE @Result + ', '
    END + s.Name + ':' + convert(varchar(30),s.Value)
  FROM @Source s
  WHERE id = @id

  UPDATE @Target
  SET Result = @Result
  WHERE id = @id

  SET @id = (SELECT MIN(id) FROM @Target WHERE @id < id)
END

SELECT *
FROM @Target

使用Replace函数和FOR JSON PATH

SELECT T3.DEPT, REPLACE(REPLACE(T3.ENAME,'{"ENAME":"',''),'"}','') AS ENAME_LIST
FROM (
 SELECT DEPT, (SELECT ENAME AS [ENAME]
        FROM EMPLOYEE T2
        WHERE T2.DEPT=T1.DEPT
        FOR JSON PATH,WITHOUT_ARRAY_WRAPPER) ENAME
    FROM EMPLOYEE T1
    GROUP BY DEPT) T3

不需要游标，WHILE循环或用户定义函数。

只需要创造性地使用FOR XML和PATH。
