similarly to the first post I was trying to nest more than 7 statements,
which isn't working.

I have a column of dates, and I'm trying to calculate the date using
the Month function. However that function only returns a number and I
want to display the month written out.

Here's the way I was going:

=IF((MONTH(A3))=7,"July",IF((MONTH(A4))=8,"August" ,IF((MONTH(A19))=9,"September",IF((MONTH(A23))=10, "October",IF((MONTH(A21))=11,"November",IF((MONTH( A26))=12,"December",IF((MONTH(A11))=1,"January","
No Month")))))))

I was going to try the vlookup function, however this spreadsheet is
setup as a "list" and vlookup says the table must be sorted in
ascending order... which might not be the case.

There has got to be an easier way to do this.

Thank you

J
