Display data "rolled up"

Amy Snyder

sql server programming: I have a table that consists of the following:

Name
Office

Instead of displaying the results like this:

Name Office
Joe Smith New York
Joe Smith Los Angeles
Jane Doe Miami
John Adams Chicago
John Adams Cleveland
John Adams Detroit

I would like to display the results like this:

Name Office
Joe Smith New York, Los Angeles
Jane Doe Miami
John Adams Chicago, Cleveland, Detroit

How can I do that? Is it possible?

Good programmers do this in the front end of a tiered architecture,
where all display work is done. Bad programmers use one of several
available kludges that are frequently posted here.
