Good Morning Telerik Forums,

I have a field called "Report Ran" followed by another table with a field of [= Now()] They display correctly. However, they are two separate fields.

 

If I add them together into one field (example) Report Ran: [=NOW()] it displays exactly like that. Never executing the data display.

 

How can I get it so that I can use a one field with text and a data all within one? so that it can display as Report Ran: 12/03/2023

 

Thank you!

EDIT: I solved this after posting. See solve below.

 

I solved my own question.. I just started playing with close brackets.

 

Use braces { } to encapsulate. In example: Report Ran: {=NOW()} and it will display correctly as Report Ran: 12/03/2023

 

Thank you!
