Anyone have an idea on this?

Can anyone explain how I might be able to return a numbers of records
based on the sum of a quantity in a field in the same table? (After I
read that it sounds even confusing to me).
 
Let me explain. I have records like this,
 
Part#                Qty
1254                  5
1414                  2
14758                1
1254                  6
1024                  3
1254                  1
 
 
Now if I did a query like this
Select Part#, Sum(Qty) From table1 Group By Part# Where Part#=1254
 
I would expect my results to look like this
Part#           Sum(Qty)
1254               12
 
But what I really want is this
Part#
1254
1254
1254
1254
1254
12541254
1254
12541254
1254
1254
 
So 12 virtual records for the count of the records returned from the
Sum()

address.

SELECT REPEAT(Part#, count(Part#)) FROM table WHERE Part# = '1254'
