help with format change of date part of concatenate formula
I have a concatenate formula that includes a cell that contains a
date. The date is set to a custom date format of YYYY-MM-DD. However, the formula is returning all numbers ( i believe the equivalent of the general format of the date). For example, for 2006-03-31, the contatenate formula shows 38807. I need it to retain the formatting of the cell w/the date. thank you! |

You need to do something like:
="Date: "&TEXT(D1,"yyyy-mm-dd") where I have assumed your date is in D1. Hope this helps. Pete On Aug 24, 5:24*pm, SK08 wrote: I have a concatenate formula that includes a cell that contains a date.
