Format date with just month and year
I need to format a cell so the date automatically changes when the month changes. The output I need is 2/06 or 02/06 and when the month changes it should change to 3/06 or 03/06.

In Format Cells, enter either of these as a custom format:
To get 2/06: m/yy To get 02/06: mm/yy |
