Subject:      Character values to month

Hi All,

Can anyone please tell me how to convert a character value to month? For
instance, convert '1' to Jan, '2' to Feb, '3' to Mar, etc...
One thing I can think of is to create a format and then apply the format to
the variable. Is there another efficient way of doing this?

TIA,
DP
