Function FormatMyDate( strDate, strFormat )
 ' Accepts strDate as a valid date/time,
 ' strFormat as the output template.
 ' The function finds each item in the template and replaces it with the relevant information extracted from strDate
 ' Template items (example)
 ' %m Month as a decimal (2)
 ' %M Month as a decimal (02)
 ' %B Full month name (February)
 ' %b Abbreviated month name (Feb )
 ' %d Day of the month (9)
 ' %D Day of the month (09)
 ' %O Ordinal of day of month (eg st or rd or nd)
 ' %j Day of the year (54)
 ' %Y Year with century (1998)
 ' %y Year without century (98)
 ' %w Weekday as integer (0 is Sunday)
 ' %a Abbreviated day name (Fri)
 ' %A Weekday Name (Friday)
 ' %H Hour in 24 hour format (24)
 ' %h Hour in 12 hour format (12)
 ' %N Minute as an integer (01)
 ' %n Minute as optional if minute <> 0
 ' %S Second as an integer (55)
 ' %P AM/PM Indicator (PM)
