[newbie] copying a date value
Dear Jon
Use the TEXT function to conver a serial number date to any date format.
="Payslip period from "& TEXT('Current payroll'!B3,"dddd dd/mm/yyy") & " to
" &
TEXT('Current payroll'!D3,"dddd dd/mm/yyyy")
If this post helps click Yes

I'm trying to get the date value in dddd dd/mm/yyyy format, however, when
using this formula, the date returned seems to be the "excel serial number":
="Payslip period from"&" "&'Current payroll'!$B$3 & " to " & 'Current
payroll'!D3
Returns: Payslip period from 39895 to 39908, whilst I would like to copy
23/03/2009 and 05/04/2009 respectively.
Any idea how to convert the format?
