使用“TABLE”类型非常容易。让我们假设您的表名为Students，并且它具有列名。

declare @rowsCount INT
declare @i INT = 1
declare @names varchar(max) = ''

DECLARE @MyTable TABLE
(
  Id int identity,
  Name varchar(500)
)
insert into @MyTable select name from Students
set @rowsCount = (select COUNT(Id) from @MyTable)

while @i < @rowsCount
begin
 set @names = @names + ', ' + (select name from @MyTable where Id = @i)
 set @i = @i + 1
end
select @names

此示例使用SQL Server 2008 R2进行了测试。

我并没有做过任何关于性能的分析，因为我的列表中只有不到10项，但在查看了30多个答案后，我感到很惊讶，我仍然对已经给出的类似答案进行了修改，类似于对单个组列表使用COALESCE，甚至不必设置我的变量（无论如何默认为NULL），并且它假设我的源数据表中的所有条目都是非空的：

DECLARE @MyList VARCHAR(1000), @Delimiter CHAR(2) = ', '
SELECT @MyList = CASE WHEN @MyList > '' THEN @MyList + @Delimiter ELSE '' END + FieldToConcatenate FROM MyData

我确信COALENCE内部使用了相同的想法。让我们希望微软不会在我身上改变这一点。

在SQL Server中实现这一点的一种方法是将表内容返回为XML（对于XML原始），将结果转换为字符串，然后用“，”替换标记。

以下是实现这一目标的完整解决方案：

-- Table Creation
CREATE TABLE Tbl
( CustomerCode    VARCHAR(50)
, CustomerName    VARCHAR(50)
, Type VARCHAR(50)
,Items    VARCHAR(50)
)

insert into Tbl
SELECT 'C0001','Thomas','BREAKFAST','Milk'
union SELECT 'C0001','Thomas','BREAKFAST','Bread'
union SELECT 'C0001','Thomas','BREAKFAST','Egg'
union SELECT 'C0001','Thomas','LUNCH','Rice'
union SELECT 'C0001','Thomas','LUNCH','Fish Curry'
union SELECT 'C0001','Thomas','LUNCH','Lessy'
union SELECT 'C0002','JOSEPH','BREAKFAST','Bread'
union SELECT 'C0002','JOSEPH','BREAKFAST','Jam'
union SELECT 'C0002','JOSEPH','BREAKFAST','Tea'
union SELECT 'C0002','JOSEPH','Supper','Tea'
union SELECT 'C0002','JOSEPH','Brunch','Roti'

-- function creation
GO
CREATE  FUNCTION [dbo].[fn_GetItemsByType]
(   
    @CustomerCode VARCHAR(50)
    ,@Type VARCHAR(50)
)
RETURNS @ItemType TABLE  ( Items VARCHAR(5000) )
AS
BEGIN

        INSERT INTO @ItemType(Items)
    SELECT  STUFF((SELECT distinct ',' + [Items]
         FROM Tbl 
         WHERE CustomerCode = @CustomerCode
            AND Type=@Type
            FOR XML PATH(''))
        ,1,1,'') as  Items



    RETURN 
END

GO

-- fianl Query
DECLARE @cols AS NVARCHAR(MAX),
    @query  AS NVARCHAR(MAX)

select @cols = STUFF((SELECT distinct ',' + QUOTENAME(Type) 
                    from Tbl
            FOR XML PATH(''), TYPE
            ).value('.', 'NVARCHAR(MAX)') 
        ,1,1,'')

set @query = 'SELECT CustomerCode,CustomerName,' + @cols + '
             from 
             (
                select  
                    distinct CustomerCode
                    ,CustomerName
                    ,Type
                    ,F.Items
                    FROM Tbl T
                    CROSS APPLY [fn_GetItemsByType] (T.CustomerCode,T.Type) F
            ) x
            pivot 
            (
                max(Items)
                for Type in (' + @cols + ')
            ) p '

execute(@query) 

我通常使用这样的select连接SQL Server中的字符串：

with lines as 
( 
  select 
    row_number() over(order by id) id, -- id is a line id
    line -- line of text.
  from
    source -- line source
), 
result_lines as 
( 
  select 
    id, 
    cast(line as nvarchar(max)) line 
  from 
    lines 
  where 
    id = 1 
  union all 
  select 
    l.id, 
    cast(r.line + N', ' + l.line as nvarchar(max))
  from 
    lines l 
    inner join 
    result_lines r 
    on 
      l.id = r.id + 1 
) 
select top 1 
  line
from
  result_lines
order by
  id desc

在PostgreSQL中-array_agg

SELECT array_to_string(array_agg(DISTINCT rolname), ',') FROM pg_catalog.pg_roles;

或STRING_AGG

SELECT STRING_AGG(rolname::text,',') FROM pg_catalog.pg_roles;
