You can use more than two parameters:

concat("text1", [link to your field], "text2")

where the second statement is the link to your company name field.

Many thanks for this. I tried using concat but it only allows one text string to be added to one field.

i.e. concat( Now(), "test" )

what I need to do is add display one text string add a field value to it and then add another text string at the end e.g:

"The Service as detailed below is provided by" + [Company Name] + "Terms and Conditions apply"

I dont know how to use concat to do this?

How do I combine Text & Fields ?

Taffman — Wed, 10 May 2006 08:46:38 GMT

I need to create a field which combines seom standard text and adds the contents of a field then adds more standard text to it.

I've had a look at the formula help and nothing leaps out at me.
In Microsoft Access I would do somthing like:

="Text1" & " " & [field name]& " " & "Text2"

Can I do something simular in InfoPath?
