Subject: Update queries


I need to run a query that will take the data from item_number field,
add "-1.jpg" to the end of it, and store it in image_location
I have tried update inventory_items set image_location = item_number + "-1.jpg";
but that just places the item number into the field, without the text
in quotes.
How do I append some fixed text to another field entry and place it
into a different field?
