topshelfbleu Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 Hi I have a table that looks like userid qnum1 qnum2 qnum 3 1 a b c 2 d a f I want to create a new table using this data but organised in a different format i.e. Answers "userid","columnamefrom table1", "answer" So this would look like Answers 1;1;a 1;2;b 1;3;c 2;1;d 2;2;a 2;3;f Is concatenate the way to go here?

trq Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 Both of these designs stink. You would be best having a table for users, a table for questions, then another table that joins users with questions and answers.
