Insert a string at end of data already stored in a textbox

When a date is entered in the txtCompDate field I would like the string
"water quality ok" to be appended at the end of any text already stored in
the txtComments field. Can this be accomplished?

Private Sub txtCompDate_AfterUpdate()

If Not IsNull(CompDate) Then
Me.txtComments = "Water quality ok" 'Here is where I need additional code
End If

End Sub
