Adding numbers to output dates

Hi,

I have a column with months (mm) and a column with years(yyyy). How can I add them together to get mm/yyyy into a new column?

If you have your number for month (5) in A1, number for year (2007) in B1, then this in C1

=DATEVALUE("1/"&A1&"/"&B1) result 01/05/2007 format to mm/yyyy
