Revit does not support text concatenation via formula. The best you can do is the group heading thing as suggested.

The fact that we can't combine strings is a problem and I hope they add that feature to REVIT. What I did when I had a similar problem: - I placed my columns side by side - kept one of the column headings (comments) - blanked the other column (type comments) - turned off the grid so that I didn't have the vertical lines - added the correct grid lines to my sheet RESULT - the field has the correct data although there is some extra spaces occasionally between the two comments.
