Use the text function to format the numeric component to suit your needs,
along the lines of ="Last Updated on " & TEXT(A1,"Mmm dd")

How can I format a cell to hold text ("Last update:") and a date which
is obtained from another cell? The Formula reads something like +"Last
update: "&f2. The date comes out as its numerical value.

Is it possible.

Thanks
