Concatenating and remove last comma

summarizer
9 - Comet

I'm trying to do a dynamic input where it takes results from part of my workflow and replaces a string in my SQL code with that answer, so that I can then search another database.

 

For instance, I have a column of case numbers:

1111
2222
3333
4444

 

and I need that column to make a single string like so:

'1111', '2222', '3333', '4444'

 

I can kindof do it with a Formula to add the quotes and a Crosstab to concatenate them into a long string BUT I am not sure how to NOT have a last comma at the end which will cause my SQL code not to work.

 

I think there might be a RegEx fix, but I can't think of how to make it work.

 

Thanks for any assistance!

@summarizer What about using a summarize tool like so? The concatenation properties at the bottom seem to get what you want.

Hi Patrick!

 

By curiosity, is there a way to do this through the in-database formula tool?
