The beuty about this fellow, eg..
select type,
(
select name + ',' as [text()]
from sys.objects soi
where soi.type = t.type
order by name
for xml path( '' ), root( 'sysobjects' ), type
)
from ( select distinct type from sys.objects ) as t
Will give output like this...
D <sysobjects>DF__spt_value__statu__436BFEE3,</sysobjects>
IT
<sysobjects>queue_messages_1003150619,queue_messages_1035150733,queue_messages_1067150847,</sysobjects>
P <sysobjects>sp_MSrepl_startup,sp_MScleanupmergepublisher,</sysobjects>
S
<sysobjects>sysrowsetcolumns,sysrowsets,sysallocunits,sysfiles1,syshobtcolumns,</sysobjects>
SQ
<sysobjects>QueryNotificationErrorsQueue,EventNotificationErrorsQueue,ServiceBrokerQueue,</sysobjects>
U
<sysobjects>spt_fallback_db,spt_fallback_dev,spt_fallback_usg,spt_monitor,spt_values,</sysobjects>
Which isn't XML, in fact take the root off and you are just left with the
concatenated data - no tags, its an extension to the FOR XML just for this
purpose which is requested a lot.
Taking the ROOT off gives...
