Combine Two Fields for Table, not report

Hello! I do it every year, but every year I forget.

I have a table with two fields:

First Name
Last Name

I need to combine this into one field called Full Name.

Example
First Name: Adam
Last Name: Smith
Full Name: AdamSmith

(no space intended)

Help!! :-)

Thank you!

In a query,
Fullname:[First Name] & [Last Name]

In a control on a form or report,
=[First Name] & [Last Name]

Check out the use of "Alias".
You should be able to create a alias table which references the source table
and combines both first & last name in to one field called full name. Then
all references to the alias table can be done using the "full name".
