Subject: [mso] Date as text in Excel
I have a cell custom-formatted date mmyy to display month and year only when
a student is due to leave.
I want a column in which the username is prefixed by this 4-figure item as a
string, but everything I've tried (concatenate etc) always comes up with the
name OK but prefixed by something like the numerical equivalent of that date
in the Excel Date/Time code.
