How to Convert Result of SELECT Command to Comma Separated String in SQL Server

Sometimes, you need the result of the SQL SELECT clause as a comma-separated String e.g. if you are outputting ids of white-listed products. By default, the SELECT command will print each row in one line and you get a column of names or ids. If you need a comma-separated String then you probably need to use a text editor like Notepad++, Edit Plus, or a tool like Microsoft Excel to convert that column of values into a big CSV String. I often use a text editor like edit plus to replace the \n to comma (,) to create such CSV string because it supports regular expression-based find and replaces operation.
