Remove Year from Date
Hi! Is it possible to remove the year from a date in Excel? I don't mean
just format it as MMDD, but actually make the stored value just MMDD. When I try to Mail Merge with Word I don't want the year displayed on the document - the year is totally unnecessary to my purposes. Or can a date be converted or just saved as text? Thanks! |
