Hi,

the date keyed in is mm/dd/yyyy. How do I get the month in letters ? Thanks.
 
Try = Format([date],"mmmm")

Ascii dumb question, get a dumb Ansi
 
You might try the following:

MsgBox Format(Now(), "mmmm dd, yyyy")

Good Luck

see the ubiquitous {F1} (a.k.a. Help) for a reasonable tutorial on Format


p.s. it works for many other functions as well.
