Hi all,
I have an interesting problem that I hoped you might be able to help with. I have some XML being returned from a web service, and it returns almost 900 variables. Whilst I am familiar with how to return these in a single row, does anybody know if I can return a row for each variable? My DBA is very uncomfortable with creating a table with almost 900 columns, for obvious reasons. However, we already have plenty of tables with tens of millions of rows, so he's fine with that. I'll try and expand on the requirement. Below is some XML from the data returned to us:
<APPLICANT app_no="1">
<APPLSUMMARY>
<MAIN W="ZZ" X="{ND}"/>
<COUNTS Z="3" AB="0" BB="3" CB="0" DB="3" EB="3" FB="3" GB="0"/>
</APPLSUMMARY>
</APPLICANT>
I would like to be able to return a new row for each variable, For example:
VARIABLE | VALUE
----------------
W | ZZ
X | {ND}
Z | 3
And so on...
Any help would be much appreciated,
Thanks,
Lee
