SQL Query Question

Hello all! I'm hoping this is the right place for this. If not, please let me know and I can re-post elsewhere.

I'm trying to run a MySQL query against my SMF database to pull some data that I can then open in a spreadsheet. I'm trying to pull user data (name, e-mail, joindate, usergroup, and membergroups).

I've got the query to get the data I need from the users table, and I know how to do a join to get the Primary Membergroup name. However, when it comes to the Additional Membergroups, users can be a member of several and they are stored as id's separated by a comma in the user table. How can I pull the name of each group instead of just the id for this field?

Thank you in advance for your time!

You basically can't in raw SQL.

I was kind of afraid of that. If I was going to display on a web page with PHP I know I could do it no problem, but wasn't sure if I could in just SQL. Thank you though!
