Can I combine 4 address fields into 1 browse column?
« on: April 15, 2014, 02:14:45 AM »
I have a browse where I display an order date, order no, product code etc. and 4 address lines.

My browse is starting to get a little wide, so I thought that it might be cool to try and combine my 4 address lines into a single column.

I've found example 50, which seems to allow me to span columns, but I don't think that's what I'm trying to do really.

Is there another example that I'm missing, or can someone point me in the correct direction please.

Regards,

Neil.

In the first field you want for your address, concatenate your address fields in the Display option in the general tab.

Delete the other columns that will no longer be used due to the concatenation.

Then make sure your other address fields are in the View Fields tab.

hope that helps,

Debra

Debra's exactly right. The "display" field is an expression, so you can put any expression you like in there.

cheers
