    Hello & Welcome to the Board,

    Are you saying spread out across three cells you have the day, month, and year and you want all of this in one cell? When you change one of those variable the date will update?

    If so,

    =DATE(C1,B1,A1)

    C1 = Year
    B1 = Month
    A1 = Day
    HTH
    Regards, Jeff

    Not too clear on what you are working with. If you place =TODAY() in the three cells and then custum format
    the first one as dddd
    the second as mmmm
    the third as yyyy
    Does that help?
