Do you mean "in one field"?
If using Sql Server, you can write a custom aggregation function. There's an example somewhere on MSDN or the help.
It may not be the best solution to this problem, but it's good to know how to do it.

Use the pivot command. You can find more information here[^].

You can use xml path
declare @tmp table (class int, name char)
insert into @tmp values (1, 'm')
insert into @tmp values (1, 'n')
insert into @tmp values (1, 'a')
insert into @tmp values (1, 'b')
insert into @tmp values (1, 'c')
insert into @tmp values (2, 'd')
insert into @tmp values (2, 'e')
insert into @tmp values (2, 'f')
select class,
replace(replace((
select replace(name,' ','*') as 'data()'
from @tmp t2
where t1.class = t2.class
for xml path('')),' ',','),'*',' ') as name
from @tmp t1
group by class

I hate XML  but it is an excellent answer!

I find using STUFF to be slightly easier to read;
SELECT class,
STUFF(
(
SELECT
',' + name
FROM @tmp t2
WHERE t2.class = t1.class
FOR XML PATH('')
), 1, 1, '') AS data
FROM @tmp t1
GROUP BY class

I'd like to STUFF all xml and it's derivatives where the sun don't shine.

Hi,
Apologize if you did not understand my problem..I am describing it again..
I have table which having four column,falconid,priority,affected item and region.
falconid is primary key,priority shows how much critical is problem,affected item shows which application is affecting and user is facing problem,region shows the different time zone
multiple user is raising the tickets from different zone with respect to affected item.that all will save in single table. like below..
falconid priority affecteditem region
1 1 textbook ny
2 1 database ln
3 2 textbook ln
4 1 database zu
5 2 coin ny
6 2 textbook zu
Now I want to calculate at the end of the day,that how many ticket(count*) has been raise for the particular affected item from which zone.. in table there are 3 ticket for textbook but from different region
I want to calculate the number of ticket raised from different region on affected item wise..like below
affecteditem ln zu ny
textbook 1 1 1
database 1 1 0
coin 0 0 1

I understand, you want to PIVOT priority for each region by affecteditem. You need a PIVOT query, it is not a simple thing therefore I directed you to an ARTICLE that will help explain and guide you through creating the PIVOT query. There are also some excellent examples in BOL that you might want to work through.
I could write the query for you but I already know how to do these and you need to learn, so!

I rried to post a little bit ago but that must have bombed off. I'm using Access 2007 in query design mode
At this point I have gotten to where I show the 24 test records for Material Inventory in the correct storage yards. The SQL statement is:
SELECT MatInv.MatInvID, Location.LocationName, MatInv.LocationID, MatInv.Units, MatInv.CostCenterID, MatInv.Condition, MatInv.TasksID, MatInv.MaterialsID, MatInv.CostCenterID, Materials.MaterialsID, Materials.Material
FROM Location INNER JOIN (Materials INNER JOIN MatInv ON Materials.MaterialsID = MatInv.MaterialsID) ON Location.LocationID = MatInv.LocationID;
Now I need to show where two 2 items of material in each storage yard came from a DIFFERENT CostCenterID than the CostCenterID of the storage yard. The storage yards are costed based upon the lease they are loacted on. There can be several hundred wells for each lease- all with the same CostCenterID. SOMETIMES, material from one well on one lease (one CostCenterID) may be stored in another leases storage yard (another CostCenterID). I need to be able to track it and point it out.
So I add in the table Well and relate the fields Well.CostCenterID to MatInv.CostCenterID and I get 36000+ records. Not the original 24 test records. So obviously the Query designer isn't what I need so I am trying to manipulate things in SQL view- STILL without any luck. Trying to follow info on Access help that is just about useless. Current SQL statement is:
SELECT Well.CostCenterID, Well.Well, MatInv.MatInvID, Location.LocationName, MatInv.LocationID, MatInv.Units, MatInv.CostCenterID, MatInv.Condition, MatInv.TasksID, MatInv.MaterialsID, MatInv.CostCenterID, Materials.MaterialsID, Materials.Material
FROM Well INNER JOIN (Location INNER JOIN (Materials INNER JOIN MatInv ON Materials.MaterialsID = MatInv.MaterialsID) ON Location.LocationID = MatInv.LocationID) ON Well.CostCenterID = MatInv.CostCenterID;
Any assisance is appreciated,
Larry

This article may help.
Caveat - I use SQL Server not Access
I find it easier to lay out my own joins so they are more human readable. Start with the minimum tables to get the minimum result, then expand on it.
Get a list of material and their storage location with cost center
Get a list of wells and their cost centres
get the relationship between well and material, compare cost centers

I liked the link- useful. Right on, I had started back with just two tables and worked my way up from there. I finally decided to add another ID field to one of the tables (breaking normalcy rules) but it helped make it an easier sql select statement. I only had to change a small bit of code to make sure that everything gets saved properly to the tables. So it works now- thanks.

These should be known as guidlines as they are subject to reality and business requirement. Having said that I alway looks very closely at a design that does not conform to these guidelines, it is usually wrong somewhere.
You got it fixed - always satisfying.

try: select * from table where district=N'UÀÄ®âUÁð'
nvarchar and ntext types require the N prefix before the opening quote when you're searching for unicode text.

Hey,
I have a table named volleyballsecondround8 which has columns like 'Winner', 'Loser' and 'MatchNo'.
I'd like to make a SELECT statement as it takes the 'Winner' where 'MatchNo'='M20' and puts it ind the [0]. row of my new table, then takes the 'Loser' of 'MatchNo'='M20' and puts it into the second row.
Therefore;
When I execute a query on volleyballsecondround8 like the following:
Select @row := @row + 1 as row,Winner,Loser
from volleyballsecondround8,(SELECT @row := 0) r
Where MatchNo IN('M20','M19','M18','M17') Order
I get e resultant table like:
ROW-Winner-Loser
----------------
1-India-Luxemburg
2-USA-Spain
3-Turkey-Argentina
Where, I want a table like:
ROW-TEAM
-----------
1-India
2-Luxemburg
3-USA
4-Spain
5-Turkey
6-Argentina
any help?

SELECT Row,
0 AS resultorder,
Winner
FROM volleyballsecondround8
UNION ALL
SELECT Row,
1,
Loser
FROM volleyballsecondround8
ORDER BY Row ASC, resultorder ASC
