I ended up figuring this out. If anyone ever needs it, this works well select module_id, GROUP_CONCAT(participant_answer SEPARATOR ' ') as answers from participants_answers where email = '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' group by module_id

What I really need is this format Module ID Participants Answers 1 a b c d e 2 a b c d e 5 a c d b d Instead of 1 row for each listed module id. I tried grouping by module_id such as select * from table_name where email = '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' group by module_id But that ended up just giving me 1 row with one answer. I think the solution is grouping somehow, but I'm not quite experienced enough to put it all together. Any help is greatly appreciated, even if it's just a pointer to some mysql docs.
