Default TODAY function question...

This should be a pretty easy question. How do I (or can I) insert text and a
function into the same cell.

I want one cell to say: For the Week of: xx/xx/xxxx (TODAY ( ) -7)

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

Thanks for the feedback. Glad to help! Don't forget that tomorrow, it will
show 7 days prior to 25th - ie. the today() function is volatile - it will
change with the day!
