No I wouldn't think so. Dave's code uses the value in the cell. A date is
really a serial number that Excel formats to a particular date type display,
which Dave also specified. There must be some other underlying reason.

How do you go about setting the value of one cell equal to a text
string of the value of one cell, &, and the value of another cell?
Specifically, I'm trying to refer to the date values of my begin and
end dates on my timesheet.

Thanks,
Louis

Thanks Dave and Mike,
Yes, I am wanting to list start and end dates, separated by a dash,
etc. The cells to which this will refer get their values from yet
another worksheet. I tried the "with active sheet..." code, but I got
the reference to the cells, rather than the actual values. Could this
be a formatting problem?

Thanks again,
Louis
