Thanks, it worked perfectly.

In the cell you have the MONTH() function:

<Format<Cells
Click over to the "Number" tab
Click on "Custom"
Enter "00" (without the quotes)

I have a column of dates formatted as mm/dd/yy. I want to add another column
that returns the month in two characters (i.e. 7/31/95 would return 07). I
am using the month function but it only returns one character (i.e.7).

Does anyone have any suggestions? thanks
