add the output of a query to a variable to be used in another query

I would like to use the result of a query in another query. How do I redirect/add the output to another variable?

PHP Code:
$result odbc_exec($connect$query);
while (
$row odbc_fetch_array($result)) {
        echo 
$row["host"],"\n";
}
odbc_close($connect);
?> 
This will output hostnames:

host1 host2 host3

I would like to add the output to the variable $hosts something like this:

$hosts = "host1,host2,host3"

I plan to use $host in another query further down in the script.

thanks & regards

mssql_fetch_row - Get row as enumerated array

SYNOPSIS
array mssql_fetch_row (resource $result) DESCRIPTION
mssql_fetch_row(3) fetches one row of data from the result associated with the specified result identifier. The row is returned as an array. Each result column is stored in an array offset, starting at offset 0. Subsequent call to mssql_fetch_row(3) would return the next row in the result set, or FALSE if there are no more rows. PARAMETERS
o $result - The result resource that is being evaluated. This result comes from a call to mssql_query(3). RETURN VALUES
Returns an array that corresponds to the fetched row, or FALSE if there are no more rows. EXAMPLES
Example #1 mssql_fetch_row(3) example <?php // Connect to MSSQL and select the database $link = mssql_connect('MANGOSQLEXPRESS', 'sa', 'phpfi'); mssql_select_db('php', $link); // Query to execute $query = mssql_query('SELECT [id], [quote] FROM [quotes] WHERE [id] = '42'', $link); // Did the query fail? if (!$query) { die('MSSQL error: ' . mssql_get_last_message()); } // Fetch the row $row = mssql_fetch_row($query); // Print the 'quote' echo 'Quote #' . $row[0] . ': "' . $row[1] . '"'; ?> The above example will output something similar to: Quote #42: "The answer to everything..." NOTES
Note This function sets NULL fields to the PHP NULL value. SEE ALSO
