James - you should be able to do this with the GROUP_CONCAT function: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/group-by-functions.html

I have a database with roughly the following structure: album -------------------------- albumid INT title VARCHAR(255) artist -------------------------- artistid INT name VARCHAR(255) albumartist -------------------------- albumid INT artistid INT From the above, you can see that any given album can have more than one artist. For instance: album title: A Meeting by the River artist name: Ry Cooder artist name: V.M. Bhatt I'd like to run a query that returns one row per album, but somehow also returns all of the artists associated with the album (ideally concatenated with an ampersand seperator). Can this be done? title artists ----------------------- -------------------------- A Meeting by the River Ry Cooder & V.M.Bhat -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
