About concatenation fields
A concatenation field links together (concatenates) the values of other fields that you specify. This is useful, for example, for displaying the values of two fields containing first names and last names in a FirstName LastName or LastName, FirstName format, where there are no excessive gaps due to varying name lengths. The "Name" field at the top of the Personal Address form works in this way.
