| It's not going to happen in RDBMS land unless you can guarantee the number of columns. You can it out as a single string unsing AS XML voodoo but not as multiple columns. |

Very strange. I hope someone could have found some solution. |

| No it's not strange - it's the way things work. You certainly can do it as a single string or if you know the number of columns, but if you are considering variable columns as a solution then you misunderstand the way relational databases work.What are you trying to do? |
