Hi Alan,
Here are the steps I followed in a sample:
- Create a new, blank InfoPath form
- Add 3 text boxes: field1, field2 and field3
- Right-click on field3 and choose Properties
- Click the Insert Formula button next to Default Value
- Click Insert Function
- Select "concat" and click OK
- Remove all options after concat so you are left with just: concat(
- Add the following after the parenthesis: "
http://www."
- Enter a comma (,)
- Click the Insert Field or Group button and select field1
- Enter a comma (,)
- Add the following text: ".com/"
- Enter a comma (,)
- Click the Insert Field or Group button and select field2
- Add a closing parenthesis
- The formula should now appear as: concat("
http://www.", field1, ".com/",
field2)
- Click OK twice to get you back to Design View
- Right-click on field3 and choose "Change To" and then select Hyperlink
- Preview the form and enter: microsoft in field1 and enter: infopath in
field2 - the Hyperlink (field3) should now display:
http://www.microsoft.com/infopath
I hope this helps!
