Hi Dennis,
if you want to create a query that returns a concatenated column then:
1) choose 'Query'
'SQL Select'
2) in the 'Select Columns' box type in the columns required separated by '&'. For
example, the following code concatenates the STATE and St_Abbr columns of the
Australia tab file with a space between the entries.
State & " " & St_Abbr
Returns: Queensland QLD
You can put any text between the quotes - eg ... "/" ... returns two columns
separated by a slash.
Cheers, Russ.
