Hi @RobElliott 

 

thanks so much... already a bit better... if i use

 

=[Location]&"-"&[Title]

 

i still get an error. if I use for example =[Likelihood]&"-"&[Title] it works... what is the difference?

 

the "Location" is a Dropdown the other are normal cells with numbers and / or text... can this be a Problem?

It works fine with a choice column, or a combinatin of choice and other columns, so there must be soemthing else causing that problem.
