OK, guys, I've read a plethora of posts about DATE, but can't find one that
suits my situation. It's probably out there somewhere,... please help.

I have a cell D2 it's formated as a date 03/01/04 field
I have another numeric field in K5 (just numbers e.g. 3428)

I want cell J2 to be 20040301-3428.

So, do I need to convert D2 to a data yyyymmdd? then convert to text? then
add the hyphen? then add the number?

It's probably simple, but I've spent too much time on this. I keep getting
the serial date or whatever that 38,889 number is.
