    Question Converting DD/MM/YYYY to a written Month with a formula?

    So I have a set of around 1500 dates all in the format of DD/MM/YYYY.
    I need to get them all to be converted now to just read as the month.

    I've attached an example document showing some dates followed by the desired outcome.

    Any input is greatly appreciated!

    Edit: I was thinking it might be possible to do =TEXT(O2,"M") with a series of IF functions to make it input the date based on the outcome. Might be complicated. Just a thought. (I'm a complete novice with this program)

    Hi,

    You can achieve this by using a custom format of "mmmm" on the cell.

    Here is a website that helps explain:

    Hope this is helpful.

    Cheers
