actually, this will not work for me (or I got it wrong :D) because I
need to have street, state and zip in one line and with separator
defined on the beginning it will put everything in separate lines.
:D

Hi Afan,
You can use concat_ws
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/string-functions.html#function_concat-ws

CONCAT() returns NULL if any argument is NULL.
CONCAT_WS() does not skip empty strings. However, it does skip any
NULL values after the separator argument

hi,
I have query
SELECT CONCAT(r.first_name, ' ', r.last_name, '\n', r.organization, '\n',
r.title, '\n', a.address1, '\n', a.city, ', ', a.state, ' ', a.zip, '\n',
r.email)
FROM registrants r, addresses a
WHERE r.reg_id=121
if any of columns has value (e.g. title) NULL, I'll get as result 0
records.
If query doesn't have concat() - it works fine.
Why is that?
