How can I get the NOW() to display a date and not a number? Cell is formated
in date format. THANKS to the brain that figures this one out.

="^ ^ ^ 2008 Info Current As Of "&(NOW()) &(" ^ ^ ^")

Do it like this:

="^ ^ ^ 2008 Info Current As Of "&TEXT(NOW(),"dd/mm/yyyy") &" ^ ^ ^"

Hope this helps.

You already got the answer but unless you need the time you are better off
using TODAY() instead of NOW
