Excel formula to display ONLY month and year

Question

Looking for an excel formula that will display  13-Aug  and means August of 2013  I would ideally want to copy the  13-Aug  cell to the 11 cells on its right  incrementing the month and appropriate year each time  so it would look like    13-Aug    13-Sep         13-Dec    14-Jan    14-Feb

Very easy  trial and error  Go to the cell you want the month in  Type the Month  go to the next cell and type the year  something weird will come up but then go to your number section click on the little arrow in the  right bottom and highlight text and it will change to the year you originally typed

There are a number of ways to go about this  One way would be to enter the date 8 1 2013 manually in the first cell  say A1 for example s sake  and then in B1 type the following formula  and then drag it across     DATE YEAR A1  MONTH A1  1 1    Since you only want to see month and year  you can format accordingly using the different custom date formats available   The format you re looking for is YY-Mmm
