SQL: Add column and populated it with values from 2 other fields and a word

HI,
I have a table which is missing a column.

Using a SQL command, I want to update my table with a new column and populate that column with two fields separated by a space and followed by a word. The database is 50,000 records so I prefer to do it in one command , or even two and be able for the table to update itself or create a new table with all the records including this.

Can anyone help?

field1     field2      field3    field4       newfield
var1       var2       var3       var4       "var1" & " " & "var3" & "word"

Thanks.

Solution: SQL: Add column and populated it with values from 2 other fields and a word

update table set newfield = field1 & " " & field2  & " " & field3  & " " & field4

and you are done.

However you may wish to save some space (although slow execution) and create a query:

select *, field1 & " " & field2  & " " & field3  & " " & field4 as NewField from table

Worth considering anyway
