i have a query that returns 2 columns. the first column has multiple instances of the child id, the second has related data. what i need to do is get a result that gives me one instance of the child id and combines the related data into one field seperated by a comma.
 
Create a custom function that will return the related information in the form of a string, passing it the child id, and then put the child id in the first column, and call the function (make sure it's public) from the second column.

Done it many times, works fine. If you have any trouble, let us know. Jim Lunde
