Hi, I have something similar but with a space so I get John Smith rather than JohnSmith
Try FullName: [FirstName] & " " & [LastName]

Also meant to say to double-check the field names in your table. Make sure you have FirstName and LastName, not First Name or Last Name (with spaces). It's easily done.
