For the gurus out there:
I have a table like this

table 1
srv db status
srv1 db1 'abc'
srv1 db2 'def'
srv1 db3 'abc'
srv2 db1 'abc'
srv2 db2 'abc'

Can a TSql query give me an output like below; I don't want column 'srv' repeated all the time. (I seem to recall oracle's pl/sql being able but can't remember the syntax)

srv1 db1 'abc'
db2 'def'
db3 'abc'
srv2 db1 'abc'
db2 'abc'

Thanks!

The equivalent result in Oracle is achieved by their clause 'Break on'

Any suggestions?

Typically that's a reporting function (suppress duplicates) and not something you'd want to do in a query. Are you doing this for a report?
