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

PostgreSQL数组非常棒。例子：

创建一些测试数据：

postgres=# \c test
You are now connected to database "test" as user "hgimenez".
test=# create table names (name text);
CREATE TABLE
test=# insert into names (name) values ('Peter'), ('Paul'), ('Mary');
INSERT 0 3
test=# select * from names;
 name
-------
 Peter
 Paul
 Mary
(3 rows)

将它们聚合到一个数组中：

test=# select array_agg(name) from names;
 array_agg
-------------------
 {Peter,Paul,Mary}
(1 row)

将数组转换为逗号分隔的字符串：

test=# select array_to_string(array_agg(name), ', ') from names;
 array_to_string
-------------------
 Peter, Paul, Mary
(1 row)

DONE

由于PostgreSQL 9.0，引用删除的答案“没有名字的马”更容易：

select string_agg(name, ',') 
from names;

在MySQL中，有一个函数GROUP_CONCATT（），它允许您连接多行的值。例子：

SELECT 1 AS a, GROUP_CONCAT(name ORDER BY name ASC SEPARATOR ', ') AS people 
FROM users 
WHERE id IN (1,2,3) 
GROUP BY a

   declare @phone varchar(max)='' 
   select @phone=@phone + mobileno +',' from  members
   select @phone

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) 

Oracle有两种方法：

    create table name
    (first_name varchar2(30));

    insert into name values ('Peter');
    insert into name values ('Paul');
    insert into name values ('Mary');

解决方案是1：

    select substr(max(sys_connect_by_path (first_name, ',')),2) from (select rownum r, first_name from name ) n start with r=1 connect by prior r+1=r
    o/p=> Peter,Paul,Mary

解决方案是2:

    select  rtrim(xmlagg (xmlelement (e, first_name || ',')).extract ('//text()'), ',') first_name from name
    o/p=> Peter,Paul,Mary
