I need to convert a single row table of 100+ columns to single column table with 100+ rows.
Just need to do this avoiding control statements.If possible

Can any one help in this query.

Thank you

This is from Tom Kyte (Right Amar ?? ) You can slightly modify this code to achieve your objective.

CREATE OR REPLACE procedure print_table( p_query in varchar2 )
AUTHID CURRENT_USER
is
    l_theCursor     integer default dbms_sql.open_cursor;
    l_columnValue   varchar2(4000);
    l_status        integer;
    l_descTbl       dbms_sql.desc_tab;
    l_colCnt        number;
begin
    dbms_sql.parse(  l_theCursor,  p_query, dbms_sql.native );
    dbms_sql.describe_columns( l_theCursor, l_colCnt, l_descTbl);

    for i in 1 .. l_colCnt loop
        dbms_sql.define_column(l_theCursor, i, l_columnValue, 4000);
    end loop;

    l_status := dbms_sql.execute(l_theCursor);

    while ( dbms_sql.fetch_rows(l_theCursor) > 0 ) loop
        for i in 1 .. l_colCnt loop
           dbms_sql.column_value( l_theCursor, i, l_columnValue );
           dbms_output.put_line( rpad( l_descTbl(i).col_name, 30 )
                                  || ': ' ||
                                  l_columnValue );
        end loop;
        dbms_output.put_line( '-----------------' );
    end loop;
exception
    when others then
        dbms_sql.close_cursor( l_theCursor );
        RAISE;
end;
