    Formula to return year of date in a cell

    Need a formula in cell C3 to show the last two digits of the year of a date in cell B2.

    For example:

    B2 = 12/31/2007 Need C3 = the number 07 or 7

    or

    B2 = 12/31/1997 Need C3 = the number 97

    etc.

    I tried putting in C3 =Right(B2, 2) but I get weird numbers.

    Thanks for all you help. mikeburg
