George,

Thanks that is a good idea. I tried putting the folloing script into the
"calculate" area of the full name field
var fname = this.getField("First");

var lname = this.getField("Last");

var full = fname.value + " " + lname.value;

event.value = full.value;

However, this made the "full" field say "undefined". It just had the word
"undefined" where the full name should have appeard. I tested this out
doing acutally calculations and it works great! But with Strings it won't
combine the fields.

Is there something I could change in my script? Is there some other way I
could go about this?

Thanks again,

Darren Labrum

get the values of the first name and last name fields and combine them, and
then assign the value to "event.value".
