:white_check_mark: To transpose query results

-EXEC MATRIX.TRANSPOSING @query = N'SELECT * FROM SYS.DATABASES';

:white_check_mark: To save transposing query results in a temporary or permanent table.

+The table will be created inside the stored procedure, and after that, you have to drop the table manually. 
+There is no need to create a temporary or a permanent table first. 
+The whole task is accomplished inside the stored procedure. 
+The account that executes stored procedure has to have "CREATE TABLE permission."
-EXEC MATRIX.TRANSPOSING  @query = N'SELECT * FROM sys.databases', @tableName = N'##tempTable';
+---The same result as in the first query
-SELECT * FROM ##tempTable;

:white_check_mark: To choose transposing column

+--The first column - the database name
-EXEC MATRIX.Transposing @Query = N'SELECT * FROM sys.databases' ,@Rco = 0;
+--The second column - the database ID
-EXEC MATRIX.Transposing @Query = N'SELECT * FROM sys.databases',@Rco = 1;

:white_check_mark: To filter before transposing

-EXEC MATRIX.Transposing @Query = N'SELECT * FROM sys.databases WHERE database_id >= @id1 AND database_id <= @id2;',
-                        @Params = N'@id1 int=1,@Id2 int=4';

:white_check_mark: To transpose with generic header ( key, value, value1 and so on )

-EXEC MATRIX.Transposing @Query = N'SELECT * FROM sys.databases;',@KeyValueOption = 1;

:white_check_mark: To transpose with custom header

-EXEC MATRIX.Transposing @Query = N'SELECT * FROM sys.databases;'
-					  ,@KeyValueOption = 1
-					  ,@ColumnMapping = N'Database name,Sys database master'
