Hi,

Is this what you mean

=TEXT(MONTH(A1),"MMMM")

=year(a1)
=month(a1)
=day(a1)

You can wrap that into a TEXT formula and format the result, too.

=TEXT(DAY(A1),"DDDD") results in "Sunday"

You'd need to use Weekday() instead of Day() as in =TEXT(WEEKDAY(A1),"DDDD")


=TEXT(DAY(A1),"DDDD") results in "Sunday"

Why not just =TEXT(A1,"DDDD") instead of =TEXT(WEEKDAY(A1),"DDDD") ?

'cause it didn't occur to me? ;o)

I was just pointing out that the DAY() function won't give the desired
results.
