I have some tables I'm working with using an MS Access 2007 linked ODBC connection to a progress database. Essentially the main table has multiple records that are identical except for a few fields. What I would like to do is join the table to itself resulting in one record to replace (lets say 5) where new columns are created to hold each of the new quantity, line item and price that corresponds to the unique key of that record. I have seen the function Concatenate or Group_Concat do something similar to what I want but all the results are in one field...and I couldn't really get it to work anyway.

These are most of the fields in the results

QuoteDtl.QuoteNum (Group By)
QuoteDtl.QuoteLine
QuoteDtl.PartNum
QuoteDtl.LineDesc
QuoteDtl.OrderQty
QuoteDtl.PricingQty
QuoteDtl.ProdCode
QuoteDtl.SellingExpectedQty
