I have a table where the data are like
Data
a
b
c
I need to write a SQL query to bring the following output
Data
abc
How to do the same by using in SQL Server 2000 Thanks

I don't know how/if it can be done with XML RAW. This approach works in SQL2000 though.
DECLARE @Data varchar(8000)
set @Data =''
select @Data = @Data + Data
FROM @t
ORDER BY Data
SELECT @Data
Edit Oh I've just seen your other question where Cade gave you a link. Doesn't KM's answer on that link work for you?
KM's test query
--combine parent and child, children are CSV onto parent row
