Month Name in Crystal Reports
How to show a month name when all you have is a number |
|
We recently worked on a Crystal Report where we had the number of the month, but instead of simply showing the number wanted to display the month name to make the report more user-friendly.
This is a breeze in Crystal Reports, as there is a built-in function MonthName that will perform this conversion for you. It can even show the three letter abbreviation instead of the full month name if you want.
To show the full name of the month, you can use the following formula: MonthName(Number). Example: MonthName({GL11110.PERIODID}).
To show the three letter abbreviation instead, you can add true to the formula above, for example: MonthName({GL11110.PERIODID},true).
To see how to do this if you are coding directly in SQL, please check my blog post Getting the name of a month from the month number in SQL Server. |

This is also a breeze in SSRS.
To show the full name of the month, you can use the following expression: =MonthName(Number). Example: =MonthName(Fields!PERIODID.Value).
To show the three letter abbreviation instead, you can add true to the expression above, for example: =MonthName(Fields!PERIODID.Value,true). |
