I am creating a database in 2003 and am trying to see if there is some way to
combine records like there is for fields for when I am exporting the report
to excel. Currently it puts each name record in its own cell and it would be
much easier on me for them to be in one cell.

There is a generic concatenate function with sample usage at
http://www.rogersaccesslibrary.com/OtherLibraries.asp#Hookom,Duane.

This is exactly what I need but the Concatenate function is undefined in my
version of Access 2003. Is this something I am doing wrong or is this
something that has been removed from later versions of access?

Did you go to the site, download the example, and then copy the Function
from the Sample database into your database?

The concatenate is a custom function written in VBA and is in a module
in the sample database.
