Yep,

this will do it :

<cfset now = now()>
<cfset intMonth = Month(now)>
<cfset txtMonth = MonthAsString(intMonth)>

<cfoutput>#txtMonth#</cfoutput>

Rich's SQL is prob best...

Your original mail said it was held in the DB as dd/mm/yyyy, but you also
said it was a string?

Try  the cold fusion function #MonthAsString(month_number)#


Hope this helps

Right I Have a known date in the Db
inthe format ...  dd/mm/yyyy

I want.. ( gawd why.. ) to get the date from a month as a string
Ie august....

but .. how the hell do you convert month as a string to an 1-12 format with
out the silly
use of a massive switch statement or udf  ... rar ..
