Howdy Eric,

My SQL is awful, but my first thought was a DISTINCT inside the GROUP_CONCAT. A quick google turned this up:

Maybe it gets you closer?

Yours,
Kevin

Thank you for the prompt reply. I tried that, but I get the same sort of output:

identifier = american-authors
   entities = bible; clemens; emerson; emerson; howells; irving; little women; 
mark twain; mark twain's; new york; poe; the innocents abroad; uncle tom's cabin
   keywords = york; york; york; york; york; york; york; york; york; york; york; 
york; york
