You can use this approach to get the data from all the columns except one:-
Insert all the data into a temporary table
Then drop the column which you dont want from the temporary table
Fetch the data from the temporary table(This will not contain the data of the removed column)
Drop the temporary table
Something like this:
SELECT * INTO #TemporaryTable FROM YourTableName
ALTER TABLE #TemporaryTable DROP COLUMN Columnwhichyouwanttoremove
SELECT * FROM #TemporaryTable
DROP TABLE #TemporaryTable
You can get the column name details from sys.columns table
Try the following query:
SELECT * FROM SYS.COLUMNS
WHERE object_id = OBJECT_ID('dbo.TableName')
AND [Name] <> 'ColumnName'
DECLARE @sql as VARCHAR(8000)
SET @sql = 'SELECT '
SELECT @sql += [Name] + ', ' FROM SYS.COLUMNS
WHERE object_id = OBJECT_ID('dbo.TableName')
AND [Name] <> 'ColumnName'
SELECT @sql += ' FROM Dbo.TableName'
EXEC(@sql)
You can retrieve the list of column name by simple query and then remove those column by apply where query like this.
SELECT * FROM (
SELECT COLUMN_NAME
FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS
WHERE TABLE_NAME = N'TableName'
) AS allColumns
WHERE allColumns.COLUMN_NAME NOT IN ('unwantedCol1', 'unwantedCol2')
