Is it possible to have a cell with a formula and still include text. It is
easy enough to generate a calendar, (basically I'm creating the calendar by
dragging a date to other cells) but once I have the calendar, I want to be
able to insert text into the individual cells. For example, in a cell that
is formatted with a date 08/23/07, is there a way to include some text such
as Abby's Birthday?

=TEXT(TODAY(),"dd/mm/yy") & " hope it's a good one"

Thanks. That's very helpful. One more question. How to I chage the date
format if I want it to print as Aug 23 instead of 23/08/2007?

"mmm dd"

Thanks. Seems easy enough, but I didn't think to try that.
