Hi, doeas anyone know if it's possible to add 2 or more numeric values
together that are in the same cell in Mysql:
IE: i have a cloumn called price that for any entry may contain more
than one value, lets say £1.00 and £2.00
Is there a way that i can get these values added together ?
I know it's easy if they are in separate rows but unfortunately they're
not. see the example
id item price
1 apple 1.00
2 apple 1.00
pear 2.00
3 banana 1.00
I need to get the sum for price for id 2.
Regards,
Steve Mansfield
