Hi Larry,
Wouldn't this return a variable length string? What happens if your first key is
"Moore, Demi " and your second key is
"Schwartzenegger, Arnold "
My guess that in order to pull this off you'd have to use something like:
padr( trim(lname) + ", " + fname, 50)
assuring constant key length through the table.
Did I miss anything?
