SQL query :

Code:
SELECT A,B,C FROM TABLE
WHERE A=6990


Result set:
Code:


A                B            C 
DECIMAL(14)      CHAR(1)      SMALLINT(2)
-PKEY4---------  -PKEY2-----  -PKEY3-----
                                         
+6990            B            1         
+6990            B            2         
+6990            B            4         
+6990            B            5         
+6990            C            1         
+6990            C            2         
+6990            C            3         
+6990            C            4         
+6990            C            5         
+6990            C            6         
+6990            C            7         


PS: The result set (no of rows ) returned might vary with the value of A..

My requirement is the query output should be displayed as

Code:

A                B            C 
                                         
+6990            B            1     2      4    5     
+6990            C            1     2      3    4    5    6    7         



Can this formatting be done in the query itself?

Help on this would be appreciated ..

Thanks,
Ganeshprasanna

DB2 version ?
Using recursive SQL (this works as long as C is unique within cola,colB)
Code:
with cte (cnt,colA, colB,colC ,outp) as
 ( select 1, colA, colB, min(colC), cast(char(min(colC)) as varchar(200))
     from tab1
    where colA = +6990
    group by colA,colB
  union all
   select a.cnt + 1 , a.colA, a.colB, b.colC, a.outp || char(b.colC)
   from cte A , tab1 B
   where a.colA = b.colA and a.colB = b.colB
   and b.colC = (select min(colC) from tab1 C where c.colC > a.colC)
   and a.cnt < 100
)

select colA,colB,outp from cte A
where cnt = (select max(cnt) from cte B where a.colA = b.colA and a.colB = b.colB)



Using XMLFunctions

Code:
select colA, colB
, replace(replace(cast(xml2clob(xmlagg(xmlelement(name X ,colC))) as varchar(200) ),'<X>',' ') ,'</X>','')
from  tab1
group by colA,colB

DB2 version - 9

Worked like a charm, GUYC. icon_smile.gif
Any pointers to learning recursive SQL usage. Examples or illustrations would be helpful.

All the sql you'll ever need : mysite.verizon.net/Graeme_Birchall/cookbook/DB2V95CK.PDF has a whole chapter on recursion.
Some stuff in here is not for z/OS, but most of it is, or will be in DB2 10.

other stuff from google:
publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/dzichelp/v2r2/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.db29.doc.apsg/db2z_createrecursivesqlcte.htm
www.abis.be/resources/presentations/idug20071106ctedb2.pdf
www.craigsmullins.com/bp5.htm


Just noticed that I'm missing a join condition in my first SQL:
replace with :
Code:
...
and b.colC = (select min(colC) from tab1 C where c.colC > a.colC and a.colA = c.colA and a.colB = c.colB)
...
