Re: Append n Rows into a Single Row

Look at the documentation for the tablefunc contrib module. It provides a crosstab() function which will allow you to pivot multiple rows into multiple columns in a single row, with all rows that share a particular key in one or more columns pivoting up into the same row, but different keys ending up as separate rows. You could then string concatenate all columns of a single row into a single string if desired,
