Courses Plus Student 15,510 PointsHi Emma Back,
You almost had it!! Just treat each requirement as a separate bit then use string concatenation to bring them together.
// You won't need every line of code here
// I'm just going to build it up with you (only last code line is required)
// To get the first challenge you just used variable.toUpperCase() method on the variable named id
var userName = id.toUpperCase()
// Now we need to add a '#' symbol to the end of that (which is a string too) so now we'd have:
var userName = id.toUpperCase() + '#'
// The last requirement was to uppercase the lastName and add it to the end
// Using the same variable.toUpperCase() method idea that we used to complete challenge one
// Let's add that also and see the finished line of code you'd need to complete challenge 2.
var userName = id.toUpperCase() + '#' + lastName.toUpperCase();
I really hope that helped you out.
You basically already had it 
Dave
