Can anyone help me with this challenge.
I have two fields in a table called Document_tbl. that I want to combine and have the results display in another text field.
The two fields are Rev(which is a text field) and
DocIndex(which is an autonumber field) I want a third field to display the results of the two combined fields in a text box or field.

Example Rev= B and DocIndex= 1. I would like the third field Training Req to equal B1

Could someone tell me if this can be done?

Thanks

. . . and with a little clean-up:
Code:
[blue]text1 = [Rev]& [DocIndex]
   should be:
text1 = [Rev][COLOR=black red] [/color]& [DocIndex][/blue]
