Trying to get the text value of the month. Created a calculated column with a return type of 'Date', but can get the result only for 'Created' field.

This works:

=TEXT((MONTH(Created)),"MMMM")

Result, successfully:

But this not:

=TEXT((MONTH([EventDate])),"MMMM")
=TEXT((MONTH([Start Time])),"MMMM")
=TEXT((MONTH(['Start Time'])),"MMMM")
=TEXT((MONTH('Start Time')),"MMMM")
=MONTH(([EventDate]),"MMMM")

How?..


update: Thank You for the response, Mohammed!

Strange that You have more columns in Your multiple lookup("Insert column" on right side). I don't have 'Start/End Date' columns there:

Maybe some feature needed..

Try the below formula

=TEXT([Start Date],"MMMM")

Column Settings

enter image description here

[Output]

enter image description here

Note If the Start Date is not already created in the list or it's Content-Type Columns, so it will not be listed in the columns list in the Calculated column setting because it's unsupported in the SharePoint 2010 / 2013 / 2016 calculated column.
