MONTHNAME() with a french version of FMP

[Solkan]

Hello,

a question for user of Foreign language FMP (in fact, mine is in

French).

I use the MONTHNAME() function (NOMMOIS() in French) and get the result in

English dispite my version is French.

Anybody has an idea how to get the correct response ?

We actually face the same problem with the german version.

You could change it by creating two calculated fields. You extract the name of the month into the first one and translate it with a formula

(Case (month (date)= "January" , "Janvier", month (date) = "February" , "Fevrier",...).

Then you fill the other calculated field by using the day and the year from the original field and using the name of the month from your newly created calculated field. Hope it will work.
