Concatenate Two Fields In MS-Access

[papabill]

I am trying to build a very simple database for our church members so I can eventually publish a member directory (with pictures). The FIRST problem I'm having right now is trying to take two fields and concatenate them so that Field1"FNAME" and Field2 "LNAME" can be printed as "FNAME LNAME". Just butting them up to one another just leaves such a gap between the names.

Does that make sense? and can it be done?

I've been able to get a lot of help with my problems with Excel, so I'm hoping that someone can help me with this.

Thanks, and God bless

Thanks, I found my answer on another forum

Hi papabill,

Would you be able to post the solution here also, for posterity.

Sure, why not

"If you look at the Access templates you'll find one for contact management that includes the ability to add a picture.

As for First Name/Last Name you can concatenate them in a query:

Name:FNAME&" "&LNAME"
