Question : Field Help with Access DB

Hello experts. I have a database that I have created with employee information. I would like for the First and Last name of the employee to automatically appear in the Header of my form after I have entered that information into the appropriate textbox. In Filemaker Pro, I use "<<[First_Name]>> <<[Last_Name]>>. Does anyone know how to do it in Microsoft Access DB?

Thanks!

Answer : Field Help with Access DB

You can do this in the ControlSource of an Unbound textbox:

=[First_Name] & ", " & [Last_Name]

You'd simply requery that textbox after you enter either of those values. For example, in the AfterUpdate event of your FirstName control:

Me.NameOfYourHeaderTextbox.Requery
