I want the following query to return the fields in a parent child format. Is this possible?
Here's the query
SELECT Field1,
开发者_开发技巧 Field2,
Field3
FROM ATable
GROUP BY Field1,
Field2,
Field3
ORDER BY Field1,
Field2,
Field3
FOR xml auto
Here's what I would like to get back (doesn't have to be exaxtly like this, I just need the hierarchy.) I cant seem to get the rest of the xml displayed but this is most of it.
<Field1 Value='1'>
<Field2 Value='1'>
<Field3 Value='2'>
</Field2>
<Field2 Value='2'/>
<Field2 Value='3'/>
<Field1/>
<Field1 Value='2'>
<Field2 Value='1'>
<Field3 Value='2'>
</Field2>
<Field2 Value='2'/>
<Field2 Value='3'/>
<Field1/>
You could use the type
option to nest XML queries. Here's an example:
declare @t table (Field1 int, Field2 int, Field3 int)
insert @t values (1,1,2), (1,2,null), (1, 3, null),
(2,1,2), (2,2,null), (2,3,null)
select Field1 as 'Field1/@Value'
, (
select Field2 as 'Field2/@Value'
, (
select Field3 as 'Field3/@Value'
from @t t3
where t3.Field1 = t2.Field1
and t3.Field2 = t2.Field2
and Field3 is not null
for xml path(''), type
) as 'Field2'
from @t t2
where t2.Field1 = t1.Field1
and Field2 is not null
for xml path(''), type
) as 'Field1'
from @t t1
group by
Field1
for xml path(''), type
-->
<Field1 Value="1">
<Field2 Value="1">
<Field3 Value="2" />
</Field2>
<Field2 Value="2" />
<Field2 Value="3" />
</Field1>
<Field1 Value="2">
<Field2 Value="1">
<Field3 Value="2" />
</Field2>
<Field2 Value="2" />
<Field2 Value="3" />
</Field1>
This does tend to get complicated, so instead of generating XML using SQL, consider a client side language like C# or VB.NET instead.
