Can you guys help me with this, I have been trying to get the

I have three fields and they want to bring them together with the

ANYTHOUGHTS?
Brian,
Besides your script's several syntactical errors, this approach
should work. Although, as a wise manager once told me, the first
thing you should do before writing a program is turn your computer off.
So, lets just talk through a better approach--first, in plain
English. There are a list of three fields. We wish to take all these
fields and join them with an ampersand if they are not empty. Then we
wish to add a comma at the end. Finally, we return this as a string.
If the list is empty, throw an error.
So, consider the following:
// 1. Start a list
var vItems = new Array();
// 2. If they are not empty, add to list
if (Field("Full Name") != "")
{
vItems.push(Field("Full Name"));
}
if (Field("Full Name2") != "")
{
vItems.push(Field("Full Name2"));
}
if (Field("Full Name3") != "")
{
vItems.push(Field("Full Name3"));
}
// 3. join together and return
if (vItems.length > 0)
return vItems.join(" & ") + ",";
// 4. list was empty, throw an error
ThrowError("MakeMSIPlesseyBarcode",
"The input string is invalid.");
return ""; // never reached
