Hi,

With the query above yu get 2 rows like:

2011
2012

You want your result to look like:

2011,2012

To do this you need to use a cursor. the cursor will loop through your results and perform an action on them:

SQL

declare @result varchar(max)
declare @rowdata varchar(4)
declare c1 cursor for select  
case 
when  monthid = 4  AND yearid = '2011' and typeid ='A' 
  then '2011'  
when  monthid = 3  AND yearid = '2012' and typeid ='A' 
  then '2012' 
end as FinYear
 
*  from Employee 
  Where 
( monthid = 4  AND yearid = '2011' and typeid ='A' 
) or
(monthid = 3  AND yearid = '2012' and typeid ='A'  
)

open c1
fetch c1 into @rowdata
while @@fetch_status=0
Begin
if @result is null
Select @Result=@rowdata
else
Select @Result=@Result + ','+@rowdata
fetch c1 into @rowdata
End
Close c1
deallocate c1

This will give you the result 2011,2012
