I have a text field in my DB of type text that contains a product
description.  This is creating HUGE problems with queries as I can't use
DISTINCT or GROUP BY on this field.  Is there any way arround this?

For example if I want to select for a product details page...

SELECT sum(t1.stock) AS TotalStock, t2.Description

I can't do it, the query requires a group by on the description field but
since it is a text type I cant use it in a group by...
