How to combine Var for Listbox from SGLQuery?

Ok, I got the 2005 DB Example working as I found out I had one letter
missing in the SQLQuery.

Here is what I had first: SELECT PatientNumber, PatienLastName,
PatientRevNo, PatientRevDate FROM Patients.

It should of been this: SELECT PatientNumber, PatientLastName, PatientRevNo,
PatientRevDate FROM Patients. As you can see I forgot the "t" in the
PatientLastName. After that, it works GREAT! Wow, no error came up at all
so it was a major pain to figure it out.

Ok, now I would like to have the Patient Name be shown in the ListBox like
this: Bevar, Jonathon M.

NOTE: I have the form to enter the First Name, Middle Name and Last Name
seperately, but I want the Listbox to combine all 3 into one entry. Is this
possible in the SQLQuery function?

Currently it is just the Last Name shown in the ListBox. How or what do I
need to do to make it come out like the above as for: LastName comma then
space then FirstName space then MiddleName?

The ListBox has a heading of: Patient Name. Can I do what I want without
breaking up the ListBox column. I want this way as some names are long or
short and it will it look more PRO then having a bunch of columns.

Thanks

Jonathon
