You're going to laff...maybe.  I was thinking about the named ranges
problem I've been having with the other data file I've been working on.
Instead of using cell references which I would normally have done, I was
substituting the column titles.  Well, it had already been a long day.
I woke up at 2:30 this morning with the realization of what I was doing
wrong. Naturally, I couldn't go back to sleep so today isn't going to be
much good. sigh.  /g

Well then, that's your problem, you can't concatenate data inside a
cell, you have to concatenate the cell names where the first and last
names are.

Excel doesn't recognize LastName and FirstName in your formula....the
contents of the cells means nothing to Excel, that's why you are getting
#Name?...Excel thinks LastName and FirstName are range names, but they
aren't.=20
