Default Formual error with text and calc

My info. states FY 2009 budgeted cases are 11,500, a decrease of 495 cases
of actual volume

I can concatenate the text and result but can't seem to format the result

="FY 2009 budgeted cases are "& E28& ", a decrease of" &F28& " cases of
actual volume"

="FY 2009 budgeted cases are 11500, a decrease of 495 cases of actual
volume"

"&F28&" cases of actual volume"

Use the TEXT function for F28 too, if needed
