I have the following data table:

data table
                                                                                 Image 1.

Now I will show this table data in a XML group by class like the following:

                                                                                 Image 2.

My Data Table in Design mode:

                                                   Image 3.

The script of my table is:

  1. CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Student](  
  2.     [StudentID] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,  
  3.     [Name] [varchar](50) NULL,  
  4.     [Email] [varchar](500) NULL,  
  5.     [Class] [varchar](50) NULL,  
  6.     [EnrollYear] [varchar](50) NULL,  
  7.     [City] [varchar](50) NULL,  
  8.     [Country] [varchar](50) NULL,  
  9.  CONSTRAINT [PK_Student] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED   
  10. (  
  11.     [StudentID] ASC  
  12. )WITH (PAD_INDEX  = OFF, STATISTICS_NORECOMPUTE  = OFF, IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF, ALLOW_ROW_LOCKS  = ON, ALLOW_PAGE_LOCKS  = ONON [PRIMARY]  
  13. ON [PRIMARY]  
  14.   
  15. GO  
Now write the following SQL Query:

SQL Query
                                                                                    Image 4.
  1. DECLARE @MyTempTable TABLE  
  2. (  
  3.     Class VARCHAR(30),  
  4.     Name VARCHAR(30),  
  5.     EnrollYear VARCHAR(20),  
  6.     City VARCHAR(50)  
  7. )  
  8.   
  9.  INSERT INTO @MyTempTable (Class,Name,EnrollYear,City)  
  10.  SELECT Class,Name,EnrollYear,City FROM Student  
  11.    
  12. SELECT T1.Class AS '@ClassName',  
  13. (  
  14.     SELECT T2.Name AS '@Name',   
  15.            T2.EnrollYear As '@EnrollYear',   
  16.            T2.City AS '@City'  
  17.     FROM @MyTempTable AS T2  
  18.     WHERE T2.Class = T1.Class  
  19.     FOR XML PATH('StudentInfo'), TYPE  
  20. )  
  21.   
  22. FROM @MyTempTable AS T1  
  23. GROUP BY T1.Class  
  24. FOR XML PATH('Class'), ROOT('StudentBySubject')  
Now run your query.

Run your Query
                                                                                 Image 5.

See your XML.
