Date format question

[TomCon]

There is a date format that will format a date like this:
"Wednesday, April 09, 2008"
Can i create a custom format that will do this:
Wed, Apr 09

If so, can you tell me how?

Thanks,
tom

You're welcome. A good book on Excel which covers all of this and more is
written by John Walkenbach - http://j-walk.com/ss/ $40. Easy reading.
