=3D"as of"&" "&text(DATE(2005,4,15),"MM/DD/YY")
I believe this change should give you what you want.  You could change =
it to
include Date() if you want to use the system date.

Subject: [mso] Excel formula wrapping?


I would like to format a value as a date but include text as well.  I
thought for example that this
=20
=3D"as of"&" "&(DATE(2005,4,15))
=20
would give me =20
=20
as of 03/31/2005
=20
instead it gives me=20
=20
as of 38457
=20
I think I read somewhere in this list that it could be accomplished by
wrapping the value within the formula...something like that.
=20
=20
