I am trying to figure out how to to a formula in an excel header that will automatically update the month each time I create a new report. It already has the &[Date} option which updates the date. Is there a function that allows the month only??? I tried &[month] and that did not work. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

When did Power Query debut in Excel?
Although it was an add-in in Excel 2010 & Excel 2013, Power Query became a part of Excel in 2016, in Data, Get & Transform Data.
Sorry. I thought that would work. We need to write a script to do that.
What exactly do you want in the header.
I see Crime Stats and a lot more.
