This is nothing but Transporse of your result You need to use PIVOT functionality of SQL to get the solution As your number of rows and country in it may vary at different type you need to create a dynamic query and execute it. Below is your query. declare @ names VARCHAR(MAX) SELECT @ names = COALESCE(@ names +'][' '[') + name FROM (SELECT DISTINCT convert(varcharname) as name FROM DemographicsElementSet ) map select @ names =@ names +']' DECLARE @QUERY VARCHAR(8000) SET @QUERY='SELECT '+@names+ ' FROM (SELECT DISTINCT namevalue FROM DemographicsElementSet ) AS ST PIVOT ( MAX(value) FOR name IN ('+@names+') ) AS PT' EXEC (@QUERY) PIVOT works only for SQL SERVER 2005 and above
