Address concatenation in Access Reports

I am new to using Access. I am creating what should be an easy report based on a query. In the query SQL view, I combine last name and first name by (lastname&", "&first name) which works fine. However, when I try to use (city&", "&state&" "&zip), I am prompted to enter the city, state and zip before the report will refresh. I then ungrouped the city, state and zip in the SQL view and tried to create a calculated field on the report using the same statement I entered above and once again, I received the prompt. Why is it doing this. Additionally, how can I concatenate the city, state zip into one field without getting this prompt? FYI - this is a single table database.
 
You will be prompted if any of the fields are not recognized. Are you sure there are fields called City, State, and Zip in your underlying query/table?
