Hi, there

I am now trying to use SQL Server 2000 to generate an xml file,
but whenever I execute the "select * from table for xml auto|raw|explicit", it will give me an auto generated code at the beginning , like "XML_F52E2B61-18A1-11d1-B105-00805F49916B", how can I get rid of it?

And if the result xml file is too long, sql server will trim the xml file in one line, even i use "results to file",
it will look like this:
"<themekey>argillites</themekey><themekey>arsenic</themekey><themekey>arsenopyr"

or I can change I many charactor can be displayed in one line, but it will be very very long, i do not know how to solve this problem.

Hope I express myself clearly.

And thank for you guys' help in advance.

Are you using Query Analyzer to export your data ?
It's not really designed to be run as part of your application. You should write some code to grab the XML and put it in a file.
