Default Joining dates and text in formula

Hi,

I have a simple formula which is joins 2 dates. To demonstrate

Cell D17 = 1/1/07
Cell E17 = 8/1/07

When I join them using the formula "=D17&" to "&E17" the date formats
aren't retained and I get the answer "39083 to 39090". The cell has
date format set.

How do I get the cell to return "1st Jan 07 to 8th Jan 07"?

Thanks
