This seems like it shouldn't be too hard, but I don't know FileMaker. 
Does anyone know how to:

1. Get the text in one cell
2. Concatenate the first 5 characters (or as many as exist) of the first 
3 words
3. Put the value into another cell

Do that for every record.

So, if the text in cell A5 is "Every good boy does fine", cell A6 would 
contain "EveryGoodBoy".
