You could probably put these in the conjugator.

Venga mañana. (usted)

Vengan mañana. (ustedes)

No venga mañana.

No vengan mañana.

The affirmative and negative, formal command (usted) uses the 3rd person, present tense, subjunctive mood verb form.

You try the others and re-post your attempt.

Oops! re-read your question. Your example didn't have a pronoun so I omitted the answer.

The object pronouns are appended to the affirmative command and precede the negative command. Remember to keep the command's stress on the same syllable as it was before appending the pronoun(s). This usually entails using an accent mark.

Vuélvase mañana. (these are reflexive pronouns, not object pronouns)

Regrésese mañana

No la coma. (Don't eat it...la comida basura.)

Cómalos. (Eat it...los mariscos)

Démelo. (Give it to me) affirmative command

No me lo dé. (Don't give it to me) (negative command)
