Concatanate data

[MOUNKARA Yakoubou]

HelloI would like to concatanate 3 colums of numbers in order to get a date
format.
example
day                 month              year
12                   10                    2007
30                     7                    2001
25                     1                    1999
After the concatanate to get for the first line  12/10/2007

Thanks!
