Hello and thanks for the help.

I am bringing together two cells one with the date and then a dash, the next
cell has my note. I cannot seem to figure out how to keep the date format.
Any help?

My note goes here


=c2&" - "&C3


38758 - My note goes here
 
Use the text function to tell Excel how to format the number in C2 (dates are
really just numbers formatted in a certain way).
=text(c2,"dddd, mmmm dd, yyyy") & " - " & c3

This is great - thanks

Can you also tell me how I would go about making the date bold?

Thanks again
 
You can't do that through a formula, but you could through format.
