    Add text to date pulled from another sheet

    All,
    I'm trying to when pulling a date from another sheet, adding text to the value.

    =("Week of: ")& DATA!L1

    Which produces "week of: 45420"

    Im guessing its a date format i cant seem to get right?


    Thank you in advance

    That is a date serial number (what all dates look like to Excel) which needs to be formatted... use the TEXT function to apply the date format of your choosing. For example...

    =("Week of: ")&TEXT(DATA!L1,"dd mmm yyyy")
