OK was not sure if this is the best place to post this. I had another thread where I wanted to concatenate records together on a query and form. I used Allen Browne's method mentioned.
http://allenbrowne.com/func-concat.html
I was able to get this to work well in the queries.
The problem I have now is the query is used in a multi search form.
The search box is really slow in allowing the character input in the form before the search begins.
If I created a temp table it would work much better. I was trying to create an event which will recreate the table on form open. However I keep getting an error telling me the "table is already in use".
Below is an image of the form. the query concatenates the Technician field.

Instead of doing it on form open, create a procedure that does everything you need. Have your 'form open' button actually run the procedure, and then have the PROCEDURE open the form.
