Solution 2

Try this:

SQL

DECLARE @id INT
SET @id = 1

SELECT ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY T.RowID) AS ID, CLM_NAME, [VALUE]
FROM (
    SELECT test_id AS RowID, 'test_id' AS CLM_NAME, CONVERT(NVARCHAR(10), test_id) AS [VALUE]
    FROM tbl_test
    UNION ALL
    SELECT test_id AS RowID, 'name' AS CLM_NAME, [name] AS [VALUE]
    FROM tbl_test
    UNION ALL
    SELECT test_id AS RowID, 'address' AS CLM_NAME, address AS [VALUE]
    FROM tbl_test
    UNION ALL
    SELECT test_id AS RowID, 'mobile' AS CLM_NAME, CONVERT(NVARCHAR(30), mobile) AS [VALUE]
    FROM tbl_test
) AS T
WHERE T.RowID = @id

can you please give me a solution today ??

It is not possible to do it in dynamic way, because of 2 reasons:
1) string variable in MS SQL Server is limited; see varchar data type[^]
2) each non-string column should be converted to VARCHAR type.

BTW: Thank you for 2 stars (it means down-voting).
