Can anyone help me with the following issue. In cel1 A1 I have a date
4/3/2008. In cell B1 I want to show 4/3/2008 as Apr08 or Apr2008. I am
using =month (A1)&Year(A1) and the result is 42008. Can anyone help me
revise the formula so that it will show the month as text and preferrably
a 2
yr date Apr08?
