        TRIM(TRAILING ',' 
            FROM XMLAGG(i.columnName || ',' 
                 ORDER BY i.columnPosition)(varchar(100))) AS KeyColumns
FROM    DBC.TablesV t
LEFT JOIN   DBC.IndicesV i
ON  t.DataBaseName = i.DataBaseName
AND t.TableName = i.TableName
AND i.IndexType = 'K'
WHERE   t.TableKind = 'T'
