[code]
SELECT DISTINCT CASE WHEN type = 'TT' THEN name ELSE '' END AS TableType,
CASE WHEN type = 'P' THEN name ELSE '' END AS Procedures,
CASE WHEN type = 'FN' THEN name ELSE '' END AS Functions,
CASE WHEN type = 'U' THEN name ELSE '' END AS Tables,
CASE WHEN type = 'V' THEN name ELSE '' END AS Views,
CASE WHEN type = 'TR' THEN name ELSE '' END AS Triggers
FROM sys.objects
WHERE type IN ('TT','FN','U','V','P','TR')
AND DATEDIFF(D,modify_date,GETDATE())< 5

Please see in my question whatever the query i posted you gave me the same answer in this query i just want to remove the null spaces .
;WITH CTE AS
(
SELECT CASE WHEN type = 'TT' THEN name ELSE NULL END AS TableType,
CASE WHEN type = 'P' THEN name ELSE NULL END AS Procedures,
CASE WHEN type = 'FN' THEN name ELSE NULL END AS Functions,
CASE WHEN type = 'U' THEN name ELSE NULL END AS Tables,
CASE WHEN type = 'V' THEN name ELSE NULL END AS Views,
CASE WHEN type = 'TR' THEN name ELSE NULL END AS Triggers
FROM sys.objects
WHERE type IN ('TT','FN','U','V','P','TR')
AND DATEDIFF(D,modify_date,GETDATE())< 5

)
Select ISNULL(CONVERT(VARCHAR(MAX),TableType),0),
ISNULL(CONVERT(VARCHAR(MAX),Procedures),0),
ISNULL(CONVERT(VARCHAR(MAX),Functions),0),
ISNULL(CONVERT(VARCHAR(MAX),Tables),0),
ISNULL(CONVERT(VARCHAR(MAX),Views),0),
ISNULL(CONVERT(VARCHAR(MAX),Triggers),0) FROm CTE WHERE Tables <> '0'

nope you asked for DISTINCT and I did exactly that
Unless you give us proper sample data to work with and explain what you want this is all we can do
How do I know what according to you represent duplicate and what you expect as output
Give us the detail and then somebody might be able to give you exact solution you're after

i have applied union all to get all the result in single column and thanks visakh for your valuable suggestions
;WITH CTE AS
(
SELECT CASE WHEN type = 'TT' THEN name ELSE NULL END AS TableType,
CASE WHEN type = 'P' THEN 'SP_HELPTEXT' +''''+ name +'''' ELSE NULL END AS Procedures,
CASE WHEN type = 'FN' THEN 'SP_HELPTEXT' +''''+ name +'''' ELSE NULL END AS Functions,
CASE WHEN type = 'U' THEN name ELSE NULL END AS Tables,
CASE WHEN type = 'V' THEN 'SP_HELPTEXT' +''''+ name +'''' ELSE NULL END AS Views,
CASE WHEN type = 'TR' THEN 'SP_HELPTEXT' +''''+ name +'''' ELSE NULL END AS Triggers
FROM sys.objects
WHERE type IN ('TT','FN','U','V','P','TR')
AND DATEDIFF(D,modify_date,GETDATE())< 5
)

Select ISNULL(CONVERT(VARCHAR(MAX),TableType),0) , 'TABLEYPES' From CTE
WHERE TableType <> '0'
UNION ALL
Select ISNULL(CONVERT(VARCHAR(MAX),Procedures),0) , 'Procedures' From CTE
WHERE Procedures <> '0'
UNION ALL
Select ISNULL(CONVERT(VARCHAR(MAX),Functions),0) , 'Functions' From CTE
WHERE Functions <> '0'
UNION ALL
Select ISNULL(CONVERT(VARCHAR(MAX),Tables),0) , 'Tables' From CTE
WHERE Tables <> '0'
UNION ALL
Select ISNULL(CONVERT(VARCHAR(MAX),Views),0) , 'Views' From CTE
WHERE Views <> '0'
UNION ALL
Select ISNULL(CONVERT(VARCHAR(MAX),Triggers),0) , 'Triggers' From CTE
WHERE Triggers <> '0'
