    Date shows as January 0, 1900 in cell...Need Last workdays date to show

    Hi I have a cell with the following formula

    ="As of "& TEXT(Sheet1!B15,"mmmm d, yyyy")

    The Conftents are showing As of January 0, 1900

    - I formatted the cell as date

    and the date being referenced is in Sheet1 as

    =WORKDAY(TODAY(),-1)

    how Can I get the date I need to show?

    its being copied and pasted in a Macro (the As of ) cell is maybe the format i am pasting in the issue?

    January 0, 1900 is the equivalent of 0.

    =WORKDAY(TODAY(),-1)
    returns 07 Aug 2015 for me which is correct.

    You'rer probably referring to the wrong cell.

    What's in B15 for that matter?

    Ensure you describe your problem clearly, I have little time available to solve these problems and do not appreciate numerous changes to them.

    Your Right, it was supposed to be cell B3.

    It works!

    Marking this as solved
