Hi All,

In a report, I have a field for displaying Date of Birth of employees, in which the format of date being displayed is DDMMYY.

But, instead of this format, I have to display the date as '31 January'.

I tried

"column(Birth_Date; format("Birth Date", 0, '<Month Text>')) { }"

on report but it is showing only month names.

How this could be achieved ?

Please suggest !
