I have a column of dates in the normal format i.e  21/09/2005 
 
In the column next to it I want to be able to display the month.  So for example: 
 
Column A       |       Column B 
 
21/09/2005          September 
 
I don't want to have to type this in for each one, there are about 6000 records.  Anyone know a formula I can use? 
 
Cheers 
 
Gianluigi
