Question

Create formula to concatenate columns and keep appending new data


In this report, multiple users will be adding a comment for each record.  Last column will save the historical comment data. This column is a concatenation of first 5 columns and keep appending data whenever any new user save comment. I want to create a formula to automatically update the last column.

 Can this be done in QuickBase? Please advise. 

Comment Date Added by user Delegate ID Delegate Name Comment Summary
Added new column to the DB 3/23/2022 Mrunali 123 John Added new table to the DB 3/21/2022 [Deb] 356 Priya]
Added new column to the DB 3/23/2022 [Mrunali] [123 John]

It sounds like you just want to concatenate several fields together.

List("\n ",
ToText([Date]), 
[Added by User],
List(" ", [Delegate ID] & [Delegate Name])

If the [added by User] is a User field then it would have to be wrapped like this

ToText(User)

if [Delegate ID] is a numeric field, the it will have to also be wrapped

ToText([Delegate ID])
