If you want this to be a TEXT value:
=IF(A1="","",TEXT(DATE(2006,1,A1*29),"mmm")) Biff "Eric" wrote in message ... Does anyone know how to display 5 into May in mmm format for excel? If I input the number 5 in cell A1, then I would like to see May in cell B1. Does anyone have any suggestion? Thank you for any suggestion Eric |

Hi Biff
Interestingly this also works with just =(A1="","",TEXT(A1*29,"mmm")) -- Regards Roger Govier "T. Valko" wrote in message ...

I had a "duh moment" after I had posted.
Instead of: =IF(A1="","",TEXT(DATE(2006,1,A1*29),"mmm")) It could be simply: =IF(A1="","",TEXT(DATE(2006,A1,1),"mmm")) Interestingly this also works with just =(A1="","",TEXT(A1*29,"mmm")) Yes, even better. Nice and compact! If A1 = 1 for month January 1*29 = 29 = serial date for Jan 29 1900 Biff "Roger Govier" wrote in message ...
