Simple Question ( I think ). I have a cell set up with the formula "=TODAY()"
in it. I have formatted this cell to look like just the month (i.e. May / mmmm ) . I then have a series of Concatenate formulaes set up which connects to tha cell, for example =concatenate("text", C5, "text"), with the cell C5 being the month. Unfortunately the month appears as a serial number not as the month (i.e May). How could I go about changing this ? |

You could use something like this to get the concat string:
="text1 "&TEXT(C5,"mmmm")&" text2" where C5 contains: = TODAY() The "&" operator is a shorter way to concat Adapt to suit -- Max Singapore http://savefile.com/projects/236895 xdemechanik --- "Sheriff" wrote: Simple Question ( I think ).
