Could anyone please help me.  I am pulling infomation from a database, 
basically name and sequnce number but the boxes can only display the name 
and the sequence number can only be passed on and not displayed.  Below is 
what I have so far

At the moment I have got the boxes to display the name and not the number 
but I cant figure out how to pass the number on

eg "David Talbot Rice 544");
ie David Talbot Rice is the name and 544 is the sequence number

Its probably easy but I am stuck
