... I have two fields:1 # (numeric), & Street (text). How can I combine them into a new field, Address? Create a query. Type this into a fresh column in the Field row: FullAddress: Trim([F1] & " " & [F2]) substituting your field names for F1 and F2. You should not store this into a new field in your table, unless there could be valid reasons why the full address should *not* be the same as the concatenation of the 2 fields. If you do need to so this, use an Update query (Update on Query menu) to update the Address field to the expression above.
