How to show several fields values in one textField

Question

Can nay one help to add multiple DB field values in one field.

Say i have 3 DB fields:

Name
Address
Age

I want to display all 3 fie

Answer 1

The SQL Method

Why not concatenate all the 3 fields you need in the query you use itself like (Assuming you are with Postgres.),

select (name || address|| to_char(age)) as data from my_table

In Ireport

As suggested,

$F{Name} + "." + $F{Address} + "." + $F{Age}.toString()

too works if needed to make it work from the report.

Make sure that all your fields are of same data type.
