I need help making a text box with two fields added together.

[Steve54299]

I have made a simple database with just two fields in the table. They are "Field 1" and "Field 2".

I want to combine these two fields into a text box on forms, queries, and reports with "Field 1" in normal print and "Field 2" in italicized print.

Example:

[Field 1] = Dog

[Field 2] = Cattle

I am trying to use the following expression.

[Field 1] + " " + [Field 2] = To give me the answer Dog Cattle

What am I doing wrong?

I appreciate any help you can give. Thanks......

Maybe something like ...

=[Field 1] & " " & [Field 2]

I believe you will have difficulty putting the two different fonts in the same control.

I believe you will have difficulty putting the two different fonts in the same control.

I did not notice that. You could use Rich Text vs. Plain Text in the unbound control's property and then add some HTML tags.

Steve,
Since this is your first post and not a typical request, can you tell us a little more about the requirement?

Good luck with you project and welcome to the forum.
