Hi kalam, 
Maybe I did not understood correctly, but I understand that he want to get the columns names dynamically, am I wrong? did you understood differently?
"Without actually typing all the fields for different tables?"
* If each table was with different columns then using simple query like this will do the job:
select * from t1
FULL OUTER JOIN t2 on 1=2
but if there is a column C which is in both tables then in this solution you will get it twice. Therefore there is need another step or to build the columns names dynamically.
for example if he have this DDL+DML
create table t1 (x1 int, x2 int,c int)
create table t2 (y1 int, y2 int, y3 int,c int)
GO
insert t1 values (1,1,6),(1,2,6),(1,3,6),(1,4,6)
insert t2 values (11,11,33,6),(11,12,33,6),(11,13,33,6),(11,14,33,6)
GO
then the result should be (without using the column's names in the query):
x1 x2 c y1 y2 y3
1 1 6 NULL NULL NULL
1 2 6 NULL NULL NULL
1 3 6 NULL NULL NULL
1 4 6 NULL NULL NULL
NULL NULL 6 11 11 33
NULL NULL 6 11 12 33
NULL NULL 6 11 13 33
NULL NULL 6 11 14 33
FARAZ
A QURESHI, Is this not what you are trying to get?
am I right that you want to get it without using any column name?
