Default Extract the month name from a month

You could use the month column in the DATE function and then use the
TEXT function to extract just the 3 letter month as in:

=TEXT(DATE(0,A1,1),"mmm")

Hi there,

I have a month column with just a number like 1 , 7 etc. I'd like to see Jan
instead of 1 and Jul instead of 7. Is there a formula for function for this.
There is only one number in a column at one time.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
