Hi folks,
I'm converting a database to MySQL, and rewriting the code to work with
MySQL from the old datastore.
One of the fields in one of the tables is a longtext type that contains
a history of system accesses - each time the system is touched in one
form or another, a few more lines of text will be added to this field.
I need to perform this same functionality in the new code, and I can't
for the life of me find an elegant way to essentially do
update MYTABLE set MYFIELD = MYFIELD + "more text" where <condition>
I've looked at concat and other string functions as well as searched on
'update' and 'longtext', but the results haven't been useful. Am I
missing something easy, or will this be more involved than a simple
one-line SQL statement?
Thanks,
Whil
