    my requirement is that i have get the details about the parentid's along with the recursive data' in a single join

    Test question?

    I've been taking buisness requirements for years, and never once has "in a single join" been specified as a requirement. So who made it mandatory for you?

    Heh... I've found that most folks that want it in a "single join" or "single query" are doing it because they intend to embed the code in a GUI rather than writing it in a stored proc. That certainly doesn't make it right, though.

    RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
    First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
    ________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

    Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.
