How did you put it in the query? Let's see the query.
Also did you put the code in a MODULE?
I have put the function in the module.
Option Compare Database
Public Function ConcatRelated(strField As String, strTable As String, Optional strSeparator = ",") As Variant
On Error GoTo Err_Handler
'Purpose: Generate a concatenated string of related records.
'Return: String variant, or Null if no matches.
'Arguments: strField = name of field to get results from and concatenate.
' strTable = name of a table or query.
' strWhere = WHERE clause to choose the right values.
' strOrderBy = ORDER BY clause, for sorting the values.
' strSeparator = characters to use between the concatenated values.
'Notes: 1. Use square brackets around field/table names with spaces or odd characters.
' 2. strField can be a Multi-valued field (A2007 and later), but strOrderBy cannot.
' 3. Nulls are omitted, zero-length strings (ZLSs) are returned as ZLSs.
' 4. Returning more than 255 characters to a recordset triggers this Access bug:

lngLen = Len(strOut) - Len(strSeparator)

ConcatRelated = Left(strOut, lngLen)

Set rsMV = Nothing
Set rs = Nothing
Exit Function
Err_Handler:
MsgBox "Error " & Err.Number & ": " & Err.Description, vbExclamation, "ConcatRelated()"
Resume Exit_Handler
End Function
This is the exact function dat i have used.
I created a new query
SELECT image, ConcatRelated("[AKA/HS1]","[Primary]")
FROM [Primary];
This the query that i have excuted.
When i am running the query i am getting
'Undefined function ConcatRelated in expression'
Thanks for looking into this
