I have a column in which the date is entered in mm/dd/yyyy format.
what i would like to have is another column that takes that information and
gives me the month in word format and the year in number format.

so for example:
if e2= 05/07/2009
i would like to have f2= May 2009

is that possible? if so, How do I do that?
your help will be greatly appreciated
