I am converting the month in a date value to the full month name however I am getting the incorrect month name.

Code:

Text(Month(Today()), "mmmm")

This is the value returned from the today function

Not sure why this is occurring.

Hello rpersad,

You can use the following code instead:

Text(Today(); "mmmm")

This should return the expected full month value.

Kind regards,

Kalel

Try to remove Month() from the equation.
Text(Today(), "mmmm")

You don't have to convert the month to a number first for the formatting to work.
