    Format TODAY() within a CONCATENATE formula

    Morning all,

    Looking for a little help with the following formula =CONCATENATE("August 07 -",TODAY()," Evening Instructor") After entering this formula today is displayed as a serial number. I'd like it to display as current month/current day/current year (11/28/08)

    The help is always appreciated.

    You need to use TEXT function, something like this

    ="August 07 -"&TEXT(TODAY(),"mm/dd/yy")&" Evening Instructor"
