Rate and Review Comment:

 	 A little more description on how the display name works with the dropdown box
would be nice. I'm a beginning java programmer and I wanted to try to add the
ability for the static text to display the last name also. I'm still working on
figuring that one out.

Description (Entry 2):
Subsequent correspondence:

Thank you for your reply.  using static text areas to display information
from a data source or from input data.  I wanted to be able to have the
static text also display the last name, instead of just the first name. 
After further research in how to do it I found that the first and last
name are stored on different cells of the data source.  I was wondering
how to have the static text area that displayed the first name of the
person appearing in the lname/fname dropdown would also have information
on how to have that static text show both names.


Evaluation:
I recommend adding this info under the Doing More section.

It involves an sql statement with an alias that concats 2 columns
