Hi Nick,

Posted this earlier, but it hasn't appeared

=IF(LEN(A2)=1,A1amp;quot;00quot;amp;A2amp;TEXT(A3,quot;yyquot;)amp;IF(LEN(DAY( A3))=1,quot;00quot;amp;DAY(A3),quot;0quot;amp;DAY(A3)),IF(LEN(A2)=2,A1amp;quot; 0quot;amp;A2amp;TEXT(A3,quot;yyquot;)amp;IF(LEN(DAY(A3))=1,quot;00quot;amp;DAY(A3) ,quot;0quot;amp;DAY(A3)),IF(LEN(A2)=3,A1amp;A2amp;TEXT(A3,quot;yyquot;)amp;IF( LEN(DAY(A3))=1,quot;00quot;amp;DAY(A3),quot;0quot;amp;DAY(A3)))))

Hope this helps you on your way

Ewan.
