I have a date cell that I want formatted "January 1, 2008"; I want to pull
that date into another cell to minimize error, but I want it to be formatted
"1/01/08" because of space limitations. I can't figure out how to change the
date format in my destination cell - is this even possible?

Thanks,
Melody
