Question

I have data like this in a table

NAME PRICE
A    2
B    3
C    5
D    9
E    5

I want to display all the values in one row; for instance:

A,2|B,3|C,5|D,9|E,5|

How would I go about making a query that will give me a string like this in Oracle? I don’t need it to be programmed into something; I just want a way to get that line to appear in the results so I can copy it over and paste it in a word document.

My Oracle version is 10.2.0.5.

     30  ALLEN,JAMES,TURNER,BLAKE,MARTIN,WARD
