I have used this code which works on one field.
How would I change the code to concatanate multiple fields.
For example at the minute I call it in a query like this:
Act: ConcatRelated("[TODO_CD] & Chr(13) & Chr(10)","Export_act","[OPTY_ID] = """ & [OPTY_ID] & """")
This works on one field named TODO_CD
But I want to concatanate other fields such as: Created and Name
