Hi,

I have the following table:

Project Name email_addr
happy jane.smith@happy.com
happy john.smith@lappy.com
happy mary.smith@happy.com
sad john.smith@lappy.com
paper mary.smith@happy.com
paper joy.smith@happy.com

What I would like to end up with is if I select project happy is:

jane.smith@happy.com;john.smith@lapp... th@happy.com

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

email address and a semicolon to a string variable. At the very end
remove the last semicolon.

I am unable to get this code to work. I think it has something to do
with I am looking at a string instead of a long.

Sounds like you're not passing the right value to the function - if
you specify that the field is a string, it should add the delimiters
for you. Or of course, you could do as Tom suggested...
