    Inside the expression editor, add your first attribute, then use the ".." Concatenation.

    It would look something like this:
    Game.Display1..Game.Display2

    this works BUT they are attached to each other when displayed, how can you separate them with a period?

    You can add a period by using ..".".. - remember to use the concatenation between each element in the expression.

    Thanks very much

    How about 3 displays? would it work just the same? 3 displays separated by either a period or a word or a period first then a word...

    better yet... Game.Display1..Game.Display2 the a word separated by a space?

    Yes, as long as their integer attributes and you make sure to put the two dots between each new element.

    even if the first two are integers and the third is a typed in word?
