for-xml

NOTE: I have solved the majority of this problem but have run into a snag. Read to the bottom please. You will see where I added a (NOTE) section. TIA. I have a rather extensive join query that I want dumped to XML. I have it almost working but I am missing a concept in here somewhere. My query (abbreviated) looks like: SELECT Campaign.CampaignId "Campaign/ID" , Campaign.CompanyId "Campaign/CompanyID" , Campaign.CampaignName "Campaign/Name" ... , Audio.AudioID "Campaign/Audio/ID" , Audio.[Name] "Campaign/Audio/Name" ... , Video.CampaignVideosAudioMute "Campaign/Video/Audio/Mute" , Video

This is my query: SELECT title1, [precinct percent] AS [PrecinctPercent], leader, [leader percent] AS [LeaderPercent], Winner, WinningVotes, leader2, [leader2 percent] AS [Leader2Percent], Loser, LosingVotes FROM [leader].dbo.[RACE] r inner join (select rc.[race number], max(case when seqnum = 1 then [candidate num] end) as Winner, max(case when seqnum = 1 then Votes end) as WinningVotes, max(case when seqnum = 2 then [candidate num] end) as Loser, max(case when seqnum = 2 then Votes end) as LosingVotes from (select rc.*, row_number() over (partition by rc.[race number] order by votes desc) as

I am using SQL Server2008 FOR XML clause to generate XML file using bcp. When I use the below query, the result is fine: WITH XMLNAMESPACES ( 'http://base.google.com/ns/1.0' AS g, DEFAULT 'http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom' ) select ID, Name AS "g:Name" from PaymentMethods For XML PATH ('entry'), Root('feed') Result: <feed xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom" xmlns:g="http://base.google.com/ns/1.0"> <entry> <ID>1</ID> <g:Name>BPay</g:Name> </entry> <entry> <ID>2</ID> <g:Name>Cash</g:Name> </entry> </feed> But I also want to add some static elements, say, Title and date after the Root. I am able to do

I have a query like the following: ;WITH XMLNAMESPACES ( DEFAULT 'http://www.somewhere.com') SELECT ( 'SOMETHING' ) FOR XML PATH('RootNode'), TYPE Running this works fine. However, I run into troubles when I try to set the XML output to a variable like this: DECLARE @MYXML AS XML SELECT @MYXML = ( ;WITH XMLNAMESPACES ( DEFAULT 'http://www.somewhere.com') SELECT ( 'SOMETHING' ) FOR XML PATH('RootNode'), TYPE ) This just give me a syntax error :-( Any ideas on how to accomplish this would be greatly appreciated. DECLARE @MYXML AS XML ;WITH XMLNAMESPACES ( DEFAULT 'http://www.somewhere.com')

I have a SQL Server 2005 query that generates a large result set (up to several gigabytes): SELECT * FROM Product FOR XML PATH('Product') Running the query generates a single row containing a document with many product elements: Row 1: <Product> <Name>Product One</Name> <Price>10.00</Price> </Product> <Product> <Name>Product Two</Name> <Price>20.00</Price> </Product> ... I would like to change the query so that instead of a result set with one row containing a single document with multiple product elements, it returns multiple rows each with a single document consisting of a sing Product

I state my problem by example. In fact i foudna solution after trying in many ways but i would like to ask whether this solution is good or if for any reason it is better to use an alternative approach. In fact i need to control how elements are created. i first made a view containing all the data i needed and then i selected from teh view by joining the view more times. I reproduced the "complexity" here using a local variable instead of a view: DECLARE @Employees table( EmpID int NOT NULL, Name nvarchar(50), Surname nvarchar(50), DateOfBirth date, DepartmentID int, AccessLevel int); insert
