I need to format a cell so the date automatically changes when the mont
changes. The output I need is 2/06 or 02/06 and when the month change
it should change to 3/06 or 03/06. Thank yo

Have you tried clicking (on the menu) Format, Cells, and experimenting with
what you see there?

In Format Cells, enter either of these as a custom format:

To get 2/06:

m/yy

To get 02/06:

mm/yy
 
V

From your post, maybe you should also consider the formula

=TODAY()

Format as mm-yy
