    Help combining two columns, keeping data in first column and date in second column

    I need some help combining two columns. But I want to keep the data in column A, and also the date data in column B. I've tried the standard code of "=A1&","&B1" but it converts the date into different numbers.

    I have attached a shortened example if that helps.

    Thanks
