Dim MonthEndDate As Date
Dim MonthEndName As String
MonthEndDate = DateValue("6-30-05")
MonthEndName = CStr(Format(MonthEndDate, "mdyy"))
MsgBox MonthEndName

How do you strip out dashes, convert numers to a text string, & assign
it to a variable from the following?

monthendate=6-30-05

monthendname=monthendate (need the monthendname to be 63005)

Thank so very much.
