I believe that's the ansi SQL-92 standard, but in MSSQL it's +. My problem was that the datatype was ntext, which it appears MSSQL doesn't allow you to concatenate. This is just based on my experience from yesterday, I wasn't able to verify in the documentation.
I changed to varchar and it works fine. That particular field didn't need to be ntext, so for the sake of clarity I didn't go with casting to a different datatype. Thanks for the replies.
