[mso] Re: [SPAM?:###] Re: Access Concatenate :VSMail mx3

Glenda,

There are a couple of options, none of them pretty.  What is the maximum
number of awards that can be won by an individual?  Or is there?  You may
need to do a CrossTab query and then write some code to run through that
result set and concatenate whatever fields may be in there for each
competitor.  

The only other option would be to create a field for each type of
competition that could be won, but that would become very difficult as well.

Just curious but is there a reason that you need it as a single field and
not a single record?  A single record would be fairly simple to get with a
Cross-tab query.

James

Wow 150 is allot, I was thinking more like 10 or so. I don't think I have a
good solution for this one. I do have a couple ideas, when I get a chance
I'll try them out and let you know.

One of the entities has more than 150 types.  I can make a table of them
with two columns of ID and Entity.  Is this what you mean?  They are
actually prizes for an accomplishment and there are at least 150 different
prizes and a person can earn several.  Or, do you mean I need 150 tables?

        When the rows exist in a single table it isn't easy to do. You might
want to consider creating a table for each entity, a 'Track' table, a
'Field' table.....From there it's pretty easy to concatenate the values
together.
       
        If you can't do that, it is possible to do the same thing in code
with temporary record sets.

         I have to do this occasionly too. You can write a function that
will do
        the concatenation for you. Does each row in
        =20
        John Smith Track
        John Smith Field
        John Smith BBall
        =20
        exist in a seperate table, or are they allready in a single table?
        =20
