I have a table 'person' The fields 'forename' and 'surname' from this are shown separately in the body section of my output3 format report.

I would like to be able to show the fields as a single concatenated name in the report but can't find a way to create the new field.

I have tried using cm_changeConfig - but probably I need the field to exist in field array first? and also tried to use cm_getExtraData to create a new entry in $fieldarray which I could then display but to no avail.

I know I could create another field in the table but that goes against good practice. I wold likje to be able to do this - and other similar operations - on the fly.

Any help much appreciated.
