Hi

I have a model called 'Client' that has a HABTM relationship with
another model called 'Project'.  On my project edit view I am using
the FormHelper to create a select box populated by the clients names
so they can be selected and linked to the project.

However as the client first name and last name are in different
fields.  How do I generate a $Client->find call that combines the
first and last names in a 'key' => 'value' type array for the
FormHelper::select to use? Using cake 1.2

Currently
// project controller
// need to add code to make "client.firstname" and "client.lastname"
merged into one element in outputted array...
$this->set('clients', $this->Project->Client->find("list", array
("fields" => array("Client.id", "Client.firstname"))));

// project edit.ctp
echo $form->select('Client', $clients, null, array('label'=>'Client'),
"Select Client -->");

If anything needs more explanation please let me know. Thanks.
