Hi Kathryn,

You could use an update query.  Air code, something like:

UPDATE tblMyNewTable
SET tblMyNewTable.NewTitle  = [tblOld].[TitleProper]& " " & [tblOld].[SecondaryTitle] & " " & [tblOld].[SubTitle]
WHERE tblOld.TitleID = tblMyNewTable.TitleID

Should get you close.

Cheers
Darryl.

On this page: http://www.techonthenet.com/access/functions/string/concat.php
I followed the example at the bottom, and have

Expr1: [TitleProper]& " " &[SecondaryTitle] & " " & [SubTitle]

But how do I get the results into the new field I have called Title? (So I can dump TitleProper, SecondaryTitle, and SubTitle)
