how to get monthname
If you must use your formula, then:
=CHOOSE(MONTH(IF(LEFT(CELL("format",A3),1)="D",A3, DATE(LEFT(A3,4),MID(A3,5,2),RIGHT(A3,2)))),"jan"," feb","mar","apr","may","jul","aug","sep","oct","no v","dec") but easier is: =IF(LEFT(CELL("format",A3),1)="D",A3,DATE(LEFT(A3, 4),MID(A3,5,2),RIGHT(A3,2))) and format the cell with the formula as Custom "mmmm" -- Gary''s Student - gsnu200855 "pol" wrote: Hi all, please let me know From the following formula how to derive monthname =MONTH(IF(LEFT(CELL("format",A3),1)="D",A3,DATE(LE FT(A3,4),MID(A3,5,2),RIGHT(A3,2)))) with thanks and regards Pol |

The Poster's formula is quite interesting. It never occured to me to test
for "fake" dates by using the CELL() function. -- Gary''s Student - gsnu200855 "Jacob Skaria" wrote: With your formula.. =TEXT(IF(LEFT(CELL("format",A3),1)="D",A3,DATE(LEF T(A3,4),MID(A3,5,2),RIGHT(A3,2))),"mmm") If this post helps click Yes --------------- Jacob Skaria "Jacob Skaria" wrote: If A3 is in date format the below formula will return the month name..Does that help..If not post back =TEXT(A3,"mmm") If this post helps click Yes --------------- Jacob Skaria "pol" wrote: Hi all, please let me know From the following formula how to derive monthname =MONTH(IF(LEFT(CELL("format",A3),1)="D",A3,DATE(LE FT(A3,4),MID(A3,5,2),RIGHT(A3,2)))) with thanks and regards Pol |
