<

Answer 1

I used another solution to solve the issue of removing the dashed line below the header.

DECLARE @combinedString VARCHAR(MAX);

SELECT @combinedString = COALESCE(@combinedString + '|', '') + COLUMN_NAME
FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS WHERE TABLE_NAME  = 'YOUR_TABLE_NAME'

Then just use Print @combinedString above your select statement. I used pipe delimiter.
