Would it be rude to ask how to concatenate the values in a query, or at
least what I should look for under help?

No need to store redundant data (and some very good reasons not to!).

Instead, create a query that concatenates these together. Use the query
when you need the concatenated value.

Good luck

Is it possible to enter a record value with is a function of other
record.

I
want to be able automatically enter a concatinated string into a record,
base on the value of two or more record value.

I have a [project number] which I want to contain the first two digits of
[client id]&"-"&[directory]&"-"&(Autonumber).

Is this posible? Should I do this in the table of form. I could also
probably leave it blank, and any program that requires it could create
it!

Any help appreciated.
