I am pulling first and last name into a form letter from two differnt fields in a database. How do I display a complete name without unwanted space between the first and last names?

Place the first name field and the last name field one space apart, then right justify the first name field and left justify the last name field.

Thanks for the suggestion, unfortunately, the first name has to be left justified to line up properly on the form. Any other suggestions?

Why not concatenating the first name and last name into a new field (add space in between as needed) in your sql, give it an alias name, then use this new field for your display?
