4,205 PointsHas anyone been able to satisfy the question of querying to this format? Andrew Chalkley <andrew@teamtreehouse.com>
My answer is SELECT first_name || " " || last_name || " <" || email || ">" AS “to_field” FROM patrons; In the SQL Playground, using the similar table= customers, this yields the expected result: Lauren Chalkley Lauren.Chalkley@example.com Dave McFarland Dave.McFarland@example.com Pasan Premaratne pdawg@example.com Andrew Chalkley Andrew@teamtreehouse.com
I can't help wondering if there's something about the question I don't get. Tried leaving out prefix space before email, adding a period on the end too.

54,971 PointsThe fancy/curly quotes around to_field are causing the task to fail. Either remove them or replace them with straight quotes and you should pass.

4,205 PointsPerfect! Thanks, Kris!
PS I think this happened when I copied an early attempt to MS Word, then copied it back after figuring out an error

4,205 PointsJust noticed, the pasted results dropped the characters "<" and ">" in the details section above, but they were fine in the work space.
