Asked by g_johnson in SQL Server 2005

Tags: SQL 2005, text field, concatenate

How do I "read" a text field and add formatted text to it in SQL 2005?  If not formatted, how to I add to it at all?
Best Case:
cola = 'some text'
after concatenation
cola = 'some text
           some more text'

Acceptable:
after concatenation
cola = 'some text some more text'
