Its not the solution. Its returns the month name as 'Apr' due to ("MMM"); and NOT as 'April' as asked above. On the contrary, I have have the correct solution here http://www.codeproject.com/Answers/315835/Convert-Number-into-month-text#answer4

And (sigh) it was downvoted. :(

Prerak , you need to correct MMM to MMMM

returns month name as 'Apr' and not as 'April' as required. Change MMM to MMMM

C#

class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)

        {
            if (GetMonth(5) != string.Empty)
            {
                Console.WriteLine(GetMonth(5));
            }
            else
            {
                Console.WriteLine("Invalid");
            }

            Console.ReadLine();
        }

        private static string GetMonth(int month)
        {
            try
            {
                DateTime date = new DateTime(1900, month, 1);

                return date.ToString("MMM");

            }
            catch (Exception ex)
            {

                return string.Empty;
            }
        }

Solution 3

Something like this:

C#

DateTime dt = new DateTime(1, Int32.Parse(myTextBox.Text), 1);
mylabel.Text = dt.ToString("MMMM");

?
