Do a UNION on all the tables; assuming they're compatible.

Sheet or Workbook? This matters!

In a short: a csv file is a text file and knows nothing about relationships...

If you would like to export data into Excel workbook to keep corresponding data under [+] sign, then you have to write custom macro (or program). Note, that [+] sign is used to group data. See: Outline (group) data in a worksheet - Excel[^]

In other words, you can't achieve that by using standard SSMS functionality.
