Not getting, please explain.

If 1000 rows were there then, how could it be possible. With the help of 'Pivot' you can only convert rows into column but your requirement is ambiguous.

You can look into Pivoting in SQL.

I not infrequently need to convert column data into row data - typically when data is stored in tagged fashion. This is accomplished by inner-joins on the same table, but with different alias' and constraints on each one.

SQL

SELECT A.name, A,age, B.name, B.age, C.name, C.age
 FROM YOUR_TABLE as A
  INNER JOIN YOUR_TABLE as B
    ON A.something=b.something 
  INNER JOIN YOUR_TABLE C
    ON B.something=c.something 
 WHERE A.whatever=value 
 AND B.whatever=value 
 AND C.whatever=value

etc. etc. etc.

You'll need to determine how to link these.
