date format?
 
I'm trying to format a cell to return a date format of 02/07 for February
2007. I can't find it in date or custom. Any ideas? I'd be happy with 2/07
or 02/07. Please help!

Thanks.

date format?
 
Go to Format | Cells | Number (tab) | Custom and type the format in
the panel:

mm/yy

overwriting whatever is there.

Hope this helps.

Wow, that was too easy! Thanks to both of you. I've never created a custom
format, I've always just used ones in the list. Thanks again!!
