Concatenates multiple strings together into one. The second string is appended to the first string.
Syntax
string1**&**string2
string1 |
Specifies the first string. |
string2 |
Specifies the string to append to the first string. |
Alternatively, you can use the following syntax to join text items: CONCAT(string1, string2).
Remarks
- If you want a space or other literal characters to appear between the first string and the second string, you must type the space within quotation marks. For example, " ".
- You are not limited to the number of strings that you can concatenate at one time.
