    I have a table T1 with only one column.

    ID

    1

    2

    3

    I want to put all the records (separated by comma) in a single column of another table T2.

    ID

    1,2,3

    Is it possible to do this without using the cursors?

    Thank you.

    You might be able to use this technique:

    declare @T1 table (Id int)

    insert @T1

    (Id)

    values (1),(2),(3);

    with vals(x) as (select ',' + cast(Id as varchar(5)) from @T1 t

    for xml path(''))

    select stuff(x,1,1,'') from vals
