I have a table named Property with following columns in SQL Server:
Id Name
there are some property in this table that certain object in other table should give value to it.
Id Object_Id Property_Id Value
I want to make a pivot table like below that has one column for each property I've declared in 1'st table:
Object_Id Property1 Property2 Property3 ...
I want to know how can I get columns of pivot dynamically from table. Because the rows in 1'st table will change.
Something like this:
DECLARE @cols AS NVARCHAR(MAX);
DECLARE @query AS NVARCHAR(MAX);
select @cols = STUFF((SELECT distinct ',' +
QUOTENAME(Name)
FROM property
FOR XML PATH(''), TYPE
).value('.', 'NVARCHAR(MAX)')
, 1, 1, '');
SELECT @query =
'SELECT *
FROM
(
SELECT
o.object_id,
p.Name,
o.value
FROM propertyObjects AS o
INNER JOIN property AS p ON o.Property_Id = p.Id
) AS t
PIVOT
(
MAX(value)
FOR Name IN( ' + @cols + ' )' +
' ) AS p ; ';
execute(@query);
This will give you something like this:
| OBJECT_ID | PROPERTY1 | PROPERTY2 | PROPERTY3 | PROPERTY4 |
-------------------------------------------------------------
| 1 | ee | fd | fdf | ewre |
| 2 | dsd | sss | dfew | dff |
