Full Month Word from MM/DD/YYYY format
I have a table in Power BI with dates in the format MM/MM/YYYY
I'm trying to get the full month name...for example...I want January.
I created a new column using the formula Month = FORMAT([Eff Date],"MMM") but this only results in Jan.
What is the correct way to extract the month word in full?
