Example:

First name: Max

Do you have any ideas, how can i do it?

You would use the Concatenate formula like this. Replacing 'First Name' and 'Last Name' with the appropriate control names.

Concatenate('First Name'.Text & " " & 'Last Name'.Text)

Hello,

i think it should work when I would be creating canvas app.

But how could i do it with the fiel from Table in Forms?
So, how can I concat two fields from the table, that these fields are then visible in another field?

I am not sure what you mean by 'in Forms', are you talking about the Forms tool where you can create surveys and other things?

here in Main I can create the UI of the table and add the fields, which I need. So, the idea is, that I add to this form/blank a field "Name" and make it only read. There are also two fields "first name" and "last name", where I can write a data. After saving or immediately I will see the full name in the field "Name".

Is this in a full Dataverse (Old Name CDS) table and you are wanting to add a formula to a field in the table itself?

Yes it's Dataverse. I guess that I can't add any formula there. So, I would like to know, how could I do what I described before.

Sorry for my explaining...

Since we have already been talking about this here, this is what i suggest. Create a new topic in the Dataverse Channel (https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/Microsoft-Dataverse/bd-p/CDS_Apps) and make sure you indicate that you want to create a column in your table that combines the data in 2 other columns.
