Question : Cognos 8.2 Report Studio, date-to-string

I'm trying to format two date fields in Cognos 8.2 Report Studio.  The two date fields are Project Start Date and Project End Date.  The result should display in this format,  mm/yy - mm/yy.    So far I have I've got the format, however I need the month to always be two characters, for example January would 01 instead of 1.  Please see my code below.  What I have now works but does not give me two characters for month.  Can someone help with this?

substring(cast(extract(month,[Project Start Date]),VARCHAR(10)),1,2) + '/' + substring(cast(extract(year,[Project Start Date]),VARCHAR(10)),3,2) + ' - ' + substring(cast(extract(month,[Project End Date]),VARCHAR(10)),1,2) + '/' + substring(cast(extract(year,[Project End Date]),VARCHAR(10)),3,2)

thanks,
vinez

Never mind I will try to close this case.  It seems that you do not have that many Cognos 8 Report Studio experts.
