Hi - Hope the brains out there can help me'tired one out!

I currently have a file that states birthdates like this - 08/25/1990.
I need it to reflect a format like this MMDD ie 0825 for the above sample
It need to show leading zeros in both the Month and the day .
I have tried, text formulas, concatenate/un, date formats, format cellx/custom/0000 and not even sure which path to follow.
Help?
 

Excel Facts

Why does 9 mean SUM in SUBTOTAL?
It is because Sum is the 9th alphabetically in Average, Count, CountA, Max, Min, Product, StDev.S, StDev.P, Sum, VAR.S, VAR.P.
This should work (assumes the date is in A2):

=(TEXT(MONTH(A2),"00"))&(TEXT(DAY(A2),"00"))
