Custom fields - formulas

[redhumdinger]

Hello

This is what I've been trying to do. I have two custom tasks field. I'll cal
them [Field A] and [Field B] for simplicity

I want the value of the "subject" field in tasks to display th
value
of both [Field A] and [Field B]. There's no mathematical calculation involved

For e.g

[Field A] = Descriptio
[Field B] = 1

The automatically calculated value should be
[Subject] = Description 1

This is the formula I tried

Set initial value of this field (Subject) to [Field A] AND [Field B]

Outlook calculates the value to -1. I'm not really familiar with operand
(onl
knowing something of their name exists); would be thankful if someone coul
hel
me out with this hopefully simple problem

Thanks
Jay

For anyone who's wondering, I found out what went wrong. My fields A &
were marked as values, not text. Changing it solved the problem.
