I have been given a Squier Strat by Fender CAE-0040722028 and would love to know when it was manufactured and where. I hope someone can help?

Hi & welcome.

The CAE tells it was crafted in China - some web info links it to Axl factory.
The first two numbers tell the approximate year of manufacture (00=2000).
It should have a full thickness agathis body, HSS or HSH routing, 9.5" radiused neck and a wider-than-Affinities nut.
Typically the CAE's were sold in packs with a small amp, gigbag, strap, cable and whatnut, thus they're often called SE models.

Set it up properly and you have a nice instrument.
Or, if you want to, it's a good base for modding - just make sure the parts you get fit the guitar's mostly metric parts.
