Create a function using this http://blog.sqlauthority.com/2008/06/04/sql-server-create-a-comma-delimited-list-using-select-clause-from-table-column/ and call that function in your SELECT statement. or try Quirky update http://beyondrelational.com/modules/2/blogs/70/posts/10865/quirky-update-in-sql-server.aspx

are you sure you'll have only 2 names against each orderid? what if there are more than two? still you want only two names in output?
