[code]select name , max(case when code = 'Age' then value end) as Age , max(case when code = 'Sex' then value end) as Sex , max(case when code = 'Weight' then value end) as Weightfrom mytablegroup by name[/code]However, it is generally considered bad practice to use Code/Value columns as you are doing. |
