Concatenation of text fields in access database

I have an ODBC link into a work data base that has the following information

Table Name: Item Remarks

Table Fields: Remark_ID, Remark_Line_Number, Remark_text

in the source database there is a limit of 40 characters in the remark text, basically everytime there is a carriage return it creates another remark_line_number with the remark_text.

What I am wanting to do is concatenate all of the Remark_text into 1 line in access for reporting reasons. some of these may have 1 line or 40 lines.

any help would be greatly appreciated.
