Default Reformatting dates as text


Hi everyone, I have a spreadsheet that has a huge list of dates
formatted in date format eg: 01/04/2005 (european notation) relates to
April 2005 (Apr-05).

What I would like is to have a formula that changes this to text in the
format April 05, May 05, Jun 05 etc etc.

Thanks for any advice
Amy xx

Hi Amy,

Format the cell in custom formatting like mmmm dd, or if you want a copy of
(say A1) source cell as a real text cell then use =Text(A1,"mmmm dd") in the
destination cell!

Regards,
Stefi
