Hello, I feel like my request may be ridiculously simple but I'm just trying to have users fill out several fields on a screen so that at the end, the data can be used in an Output box of sorts. For example, if they fill in the first and last name fields in the screenshot and they click "Add", the names would then appear within the rest of some other test like "The customer (First-Last name) has been registered for this event".

At that point also, what function would be used to click the Copy Output button to copy all of the output box to the clipboard?

I hope this doesn't seem to noob-ish! haha Thanks in advance!

@R-Omen

you can use Concatenate function to achieve this.
Use the formula:
Concatenate("The customer ",FirstNameInput.Text," ",LastNameInput.Text," has been registered for this event")
Hope this helps.
Cheers!

Hi @R-Omen，

Have you solved the problem?

@narayan225 has provided the solution that how to concatenate the first name and last name, however, to achieve your needs one by one, you need to generate a variable, please check as below:

1). set the OnSelect property of Add button:

Set(varoutput,Other_textInput.Text& TextInput_FirstName.Text& TextInput_LastName.Text )

2). Set the Default property of the output Textinput as the variable varoutput

3). Set the OnSelect property of copy button:

Set(varcopy,output_TextInput.Text)

4). Assign the varcopy to any inputbox
