Hi..
DECLARE @Sample TABLE (ID INT, Code VARCHAR(50))

INSERT @Sample
SELECT 1, 'One' UNION ALL
SELECT 2, 'TWO' UNION ALL
SELECT 3, 'THREE' UNION ALL
SELECT 4, 'FOUR' union all
SELECT 5, 'Five' UNION ALL
SELECT 6, 'SIX' UNION ALL
SELECT 7, 'SEVEN' UNION ALL
SELECT 8, 'EIGHT' UNION ALL
SELECT 9, 'NINE' UNION ALL
SELECT 10, 'TEN'

My output should be as
ID-Values
1-One,Two,Three,Four
2-Five,Six,Seven,Eight
3-Nine,Ten

If My Sample table contains Only 5 rows then it should show
One to Four in first line
and remaining items in second line
TIA.

[code]
SELECT S1.Code + COALESCE(', ' + S2.Code, '') + COALESCE(', ' + S3.Code, '') + COALESCE(', ' + S4.Code, '')
FROM @Sample AS S1
LEFT OUTER JOIN @Sample AS S2
ON S2.ID = S1.ID+1
LEFT OUTER JOIN @Sample AS S3
ON S3.ID = S1.ID+2
LEFT OUTER JOIN @Sample AS S4
ON S4.ID = S1.ID+3
WHERE S1.ID % 4 = 1
[/code]

Sorry guys bit more requirement
DECLARE @Sample TABLE (ID INT, CODE VARCHAR(50))

INSERT @Sample
SELECT 1, 'One' UNION ALL
SELECT 2, 'TWO' UNION ALL
SELECT 4, 'FOUR' union all
SELECT 5, 'Five' UNION ALL
SELECT 6, 'Six'

In this Case it should display as

The rule is Four values/records in single row

do it in your presentation layer. Much, much easier to implement a record count and concat there.
