If this is the challenge I think it is, this should be the solution. You need to make the id and username uppercase by using the toUpperCase method on each variable as you create the userName variable.

var id = "23188xtr";
var lastName = "Smith";

var userName = id.toUpperCase() + "#" + lastname.toUpperCase();

Don't remember needing to create an alert but once you've got your userName variable set you can create the alert by doing this:

alert(userName);

You don't need to add a hashtag. Instead you need to concat the hashtag along with it. var id = "23188xtr"; var lastName = "Smith"; var username = '#' + lastName.toUpperCase() I'll let you figure out the rest. Cheers!

//in order to obtain the end result "23188xtr#SMITH" :

var id = "23188xtr";

var lastName = "smith";

var username = id + "#" + lastName.toUpperCase();

alert(username);

// i hope that this helps you :)
