Good morning

When i use the Tquery componente of MYDAC components,
and I use a QUERY like this:

"Select concat(Name,' ', FirstName,' ', SecondName) from NamesTable"

In a direct MySQL console or maybe another Mysql Software Admin i get a complete name of the persons in this table.

Buy if I use a Tquery component and some of the columns like Name or maybe FisrtName or may SecondName has a null or empty value, then the result of this record in the query is empty, and i dont understand the reazon.
Is a bug of the component????

Such result is returned by MySQL server and doesn't depend on MyDAC. Please make sure that you can get another result with a third-party MySQL client and with the same database.

Concat work very well with mydac.. please.. post the program code..

try the SQL

Select
concat(Name,' ', FirstName,' ', SecondName) as MyField
from
NamesTable

Use concat_ws to concat strings with NULL values.
This is an MYSQL thing, read this:
