You can save the output of a query in QA using the
Query--> Results to file option.
You can get the output of a query in XML using the FOR XML clause

|||Hi
You can create XML with the FOR XML option in SELECT statements. If you want
to save the data to a file, look at DTS as SQL Server does not do user file
handling itself.

How to get query execution time of an MS SQL Query in Visual basic

please let me know How to get query execution time of an MS SQL Query
in Visual basic
If you are executing the query from vba, create a timer (using
GetTickcount from the Windows API or something similar). Record the
start time at the beginning of the query, and the stop time after it
completes. Compute the total time elapsed.
