Select all the columns of a table except one column?

You can use this approach to get the data from all the columns except one:-

  1. Insert all the data into a temporary table
  2. Then drop the column which you dont want from the temporary table
  3. Fetch the data from the temporary table(This will not contain the data of the removed column)
  4. Drop the temporary table

Something like this:

SELECT * INTO #TemporaryTable FROM YourTableName

ALTER TABLE #TemporaryTable DROP COLUMN Columnwhichyouwanttoremove

SELECT * FROM #TemporaryTable 

DROP TABLE #TemporaryTable
