Default Lumping dates into quarters by year

Thank you - it worked perfectly. I would have never gotten there on my own.

I have a list of dates extending out for the next 8 years and I need to put
them in the quarter/year category - i.e., 3Q09 for a date that is 10/12/09.

Is there a formula to convert dates to this type of format?
