    Concatenate TODAY() function

    I want a report header to be similar to: REPORT AS OF 2/23/10

    If I use the TODAY() function by itself, I get the date; 2/23/10.

    But when I concatenate it with the text "REPORT AS OF " & TODAY()" I get REPORT AS OF 40232"

    How do I preserve the date format when I concatenate it with text?

    Try:

    ="REPORT AS OF " & TEXT(TODAY(),"m/dd/yy")
    Where there is a will there are many ways.
