I am trying to select the firstname and surname fields from a table.
select firstname + surname fullname from people;
This does work in other databases but does not seem to work here.
Am I doing something wrong or is there a different way to achieve this with
mysql?

I am trying to select the firstname and surname fields from a table.
select firstname + surname fullname from people;
This does work in other databases but does not seem to work here.
Am I doing something wrong or is there a different way to achieve this with mysql?
