I have a database with separate fields for "FirstName", "LastName" and
"Emailddress"

I use this SQL to produce a complete email address:

FullEmail: Chr$(34) & [FirstName] & " " & [LastName] & Chr$(34) & " <"
& (e-mail address removed)
 
Copied and pasted to where, Robin? Whichever application is the one to which
you're pasting the email address, it believes that this is one big text
string that needs to be delimited with the " marks; ergo, the extra ones
around the name itself.
 
It is part of an broadcast email to club members. The whole output is
pasted into nickname list in my Eudora address book.

I've been doing that for about ten years and this is the first time it
has happened.

I'll investigate Eudora next.

Thanks.
