How to concatenate Dynamic multivalue fields to single value fields?

Hi all,

I have events coming in that have multivalue fields, but not always the same fields are multivalue. I want all the fields in the events resulting from a search to be concatenated to single value field.

Example:

Result now shows:

dest       xyz

                fff

Result should show:

dest   xyz [delimiter] fff

Just to be sure that everyone understand using dest here is an example it should be a query that I can run that would actually change every multivalue field regardless of field name.

Cheers,
