SQL：透视两个文本列表？

Question

I'm new to SQL and the Pivot function. I want to pivot the following table:

name   value
-----  -----
name1  value1  
name2  value2  
name3  value3  

To:

name1   name2   name3  
------  ------  ------
value1  value2  value3

Any idea how I can do it? Because when I read about the pivot function it required an accumulation function, but I want to keep it as strings.

Answer 1

You can use a bogus aggregate function applicable to strings, such as MIN .

But you have to list the nameX columns manually, so if you want to pivot for unlimited/unknown number of columns, you'll have to dynamically construct the SQL clause.
