Hi omnia_saleh ,
Content of the "content" Column: The content of the "content" column would depend on the design of your database and the purpose of the table. If you need to understand what kind of data is stored in this column, you might want to look at a sample of the data:
SELECT TOP (10) content FROM [dbo].[CatalogItemExtendedContent];Converting Data to XML: To convert the data in the "content" column to XML for better readability, you can use the clause in SQL Server. Here's an example of how you might construct such a query:
SELECT content FROM [dbo].[CatalogItemExtendedContent] FOR XML PATH('ContentItem'), ROOT('ContentList');Best Regards,
