summary

Hi guys! I am somewhat mystified by concat and joins in MySQL 4. Here's where I am having an issue. I have two tables...

person

id, fname, lname, city, state, zip

capital

state, city

I am needing to generate all states and the number of persons (from the person table) from each. Something like ....

AK | 5

AL | 7

etc etc

Any advice would be appreciated. I so rarely am asked to do anything MySQL related and I'm stumped.
