Subject: [NOVICE] Concatenating string fields with GROUP BY clause
Hi -
I am trying to concatenate a text field in a query with a group by clause,
similar to a sum() function on a numeric value - for example:
SELECT groupid, sum(numeric_field), ???(text_field) FROM table GROUP BY
groupid
but I cannot find a function that will concatenate the text fields. Any
comments appreciated!
TIA,BGH
