Dates and times are just specially formatted numbers, so you have to tell
Excel how to format the number returned by the Now() function. Ex: ="Today is " & TEXT(TODAY(),"Mmm dd") --Bruce "Chris Lane" wrote: Hi I need to insert a date into header, something like ="Today's date is "&Now() However, the formula returns only the date number - I cannot figure out how to return the date?
