Adam Im getting an error message on the brackets at the end  Please see 

"<img src=\"chart.apis.google.com/...

I missed the closing parenthesis. Try this:

"<img src=\"chart.apis.google.com/...
&[N Project Number]
&[Customer - Full Name]
&[Project Status4]
&"\"\"/>"

      Working fine on my end:


      Are you using a formula rich text field?

      Does your complete code look like this?
      "<img src=\"http://chart.apis.google.com/chart?cht=qr&chs=120x120&chl="
      &[N Project Number]
      &[Customer - Full Name]
      &[Project Status4]
      & "\"\"/>"
