asked on

3 columns of calendar data to make a date in another column

i have 3 columns
in column a i have the month
in column b i have the day
in column c i have the year  (only 2 places)

for instance.  
my data
a (month)   b(day)   c(year)     what i am trying to get in one column
     5               24          4               5/24/2004
     11               8         99              11/8/1999

so the third column is tricky.... it only has last 2 digits of the year

some of the people that were hired in 1979 are coming back as hired in 2079.

the year column says 79  but in actuality it was 1979
the formula comes back with it saying 2079
its dang close tho
Have you tried my suggestion at ID:37040054?

It worked well.


Sincerely,
