Calc. field based on a repeating text field?

I have a repeating text field with 3 repeats. It is basically for entering email addresses. so the three repeating lines would have something like this entered:

[email protected]

[email protected]

[email protected]

I want a calculation field that links to the above email field, and some sort of calculation that can look at the 3 repeating lines and return something formatted like this:

[email protected],[email protected],[email protected]

Anyone have any thoughts as to the type of calculation that would show the information in all 3 repeating fields?

YIKES. I thought I understood File Maker calculations pretty well, but this one is a whopper. Works as promised, but what a calculation. Would have never guessed.
