hello @Sonyat810 , 

 

can you show me what type of date you have ?

 

if you have something like 1/1/2023 for example, to have the month in a seperate column

 

calculated column = format ('Tablename' [datecolumn], "mmmm")

This all I have as far as day, but no month. It won't let me change it to date format, so I will have to create something.

I want this to say "August". How do I write that? This is what I have:

Month = IFERROR ( VALUE ( 'CE Lookup 2'[Day] ), BLANK ( ) )

pls try this

Month = IFERROR (FORMAT( DATE(2023,8, VALUE ( 'CE Lookup 2'[Day] )),"MMMM"), BLANK ( ) )

All of the days are for August.
