You mean something like this? mysql> create table nads( -> state varchar(50), -> url varchar(100)); Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.03 sec)
mysql> insert into nads values('California', 'http://www.california.gov'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec) mysql> insert into nads values('Florida', 'http://www.florida.gov'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec) mysql> SELECT CONCAT('<A HREF=', url, '>', state, '</A>') as link from nads; +--------------------------------------------------+ | link | +--------------------------------------------------+ | <A HREF=http://www.california.gov>California</A> | | <A HREF=http://www.florida.gov>Florida</A> | +--------------------------------------------------+ 2 rows in set (0.05 sec) -----Original Message----- From: David Blomstrom [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, June 26, 2004 8:07 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Merging 2 Fields I think I recall a thread where someone mentioned merging two fields. If that can be done, I'd like to know how. For example, suppose I have a field filled with place names, next to a field filled with links: California | <http://www.california.gov/> Florida | <http://www.florida.gov/> I'd like to merge the columns, so the two columns are displayed as one: <http://www.california.gov/>California I'd have to add the closing </a> tag somehow, but I think I know how to do that. So how do you merge fields? Thanks. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
