It's rarely necessary or a good idea to store a calculated value like this.
Instead, use a query.

You could:

* create a new query in design view
* add the table(s) that has these fields
* create a new output field, perhaps like: NewField: [FName] & " " &
[LName]

Good luck!

Somebody wrote on this forum recently how to do this. In a table or a
query,
maybe both, and it was really simple and clever but I failed to print it
for
my notes.

Take FName+" "+ LName, call them by another name (field name?) so that
when I create a report, I don't have to worry about where to place the
elements of a name so they look smooth and all melody and fine.

Is this possible in a mere table? If not, please how do you do it in a
query, and I promise to print it.

TYIA.
