I was trying to concatenate values by comma when I will use group by. So I use STUFF() function and for xml path('') clause. Here is my script

IF EXISTS 
( 
 SELECT * 
 FROM tempdb.dbo.sysobjects 
 WHERE ID = OBJECT_ID(N'tempdb..#tmp1') 
) 
BEGIN 
 DROP TABLE #tmp1 
END 

create table #tmp1
(ID  varchar(2),CName varchar(20) )

insert into #tmp1(ID,CName) values ('A','BBA Reman')
insert into #tmp1(ID,CName) values ('B','BBA Reman')
insert into #tmp1(ID,CName) values ('C','CT Tech')
insert into #tmp1(ID,CName) values ('D','CT Tech')

select
t1.CName,
stuff((
    select ',' + t.ID
    from #tmp1 t
    where t.CName = t1.CName
    order by t.ID
    for xml path('')
),1,1,'') as ConCatStr
from #tmp1 t1
group by t1.CName

The above script run successfully in SQL Server 2005 but not running in SQL Server 2000. So tell me how to restructure my script as a result it should run in SQL Server 2000 also.
