Summarizing Text from Children
I have a hierarchy set up and want the parent line to automatically pick up all text in the same column as the children, ideally unique/distinct values only.
For example, my children are
"SEA
Singapore"
"SEA
Vietnam"
"Indonesia
SEA"
Thailand
Which are all items selected from a drop-down menu
I want the formula to return SEA Singapore Vietnam Indonesia Thailand. Is there any way to do this?

Try something like this...
=JOIN(DISTINCT(COLLECT(CHILDREN(), CHILDREN(), @cell <> "")), " ")
