I am trying to print out the name of the month not the integer value of each month. (for example if the date is 2/2/2002, I would like the "month" to read out "February" instead of "2."
I am pulling in the system.DateTime.now to get the current month. When I try to print out the current month on the form, it just puts the correlating integer value for the month, whereas I would like to have the Month Name.
I know this can be done using switch-case or if statements to individually convert the numbers into word values, but I was just wondering if there was a simple, built-in conversion command that will automatically tell the application to print out the month's name instead of it's correlating integer value.
I am programming in the Visual Studio 2010 environment using C#-4.0, Silverlight-4.0.

// to get the Abbreviated month name string month_name = date. ToString("MMM"); // to get the full month name string month_name = date. ToString("MMMM");
1. To convert month number to month name we have to use a function MONTHNAME(), this function takes date column or a date as a string and returns the Month name corresponding to the month number.
Method #1 : Using strftime() + %B In this, we use strftime() which converts date object to a string using a format, and by providing %B, it's enforced to just return a Month Name.
In the Flutter Event Calendar, you can get the month and year of month view by using onViewChanged callback of calendar. Using onViewChanged callback you can get the month and year of the month view using visibleDates property of ViewChangedDetails args.
Try DateTime.Now.ToString("MMMM")
See MSDN: Custom Date and Time Format Strings for other format strings.
