extract the month
Hello,
I'm using the following to extract the month from a date: =MONTH(G2). I can't seem to figure out how to get it to show the actual month (August) instead of the numbered month (8). Can you help? Thanks |

extract the month
Maybe you could use this instead: =TEXT(G2,"mmm")
which will directly extract the month from the date in G2 as text, eg: Aug aha? hit the YES below -- Max Singapore http://savefile.com/projects/236895 Downloads:27,000 Files:200 Subscribers:70 xdemechanik --- "Jim" wrote: I'm using the following to extract the month from a date: =MONTH(G2).
