2,406 PointsSQL concatenation
SELECT first_name || " " || last_name || email AS "to_field" FROM patrons;
This is the portion I've written to generate the concatenated text ( I think I attached the code to this post) but it keeps returning that the email info is not being returned in the right format. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

2,406 PointsFound the information on another question, I did not include the || < || and || >|| for the email format, I thought it was already formatted like that in the database.
So it needed to be:
SELECT first_name || " " || last_name || " <" || email || ">" AS "to_field" FROM patrons:
