Default How can I extract a month from Excel date?

.. Both do the job.

In terms of showing / display in the formula cell, yes. But there's a subtle
difference in the underlying values. Formatting retains it as a number,
while using TEXT converts it to text. The underlying value would of course
impact any downstream formulas pointing to that formula cell.
