I have the date time field. I want extract only Month and the year. How can I do the same.
Current format of the field is "10/01/2012 hh:mm:ss"
Need to convert to "October 2012"
I want to do these changes in SSRS.

Assuming your source data field is a datetime datatype and you don't want the day, you could do something like:
=Format(Fields!YourDate.Value, "MMMM") & " " & CStr(Year(Fields!YourDate.Value))

*I don't have SSRS open as I type this, so please double check my memory to make sure it works as you wish

Hello Rob,
Few data is correct and few is wrong. Here is the sample output I am getting:
Octaber 12
Jul12 12
SetpAmer
What is the problem?

Impossible to know without seeing the data, but I'd guess that the field isn't a datetime datatype, but rather a varchar() where not all of the values are correctly formatted dates.
Take a look at the raw data coming through for that field.

Hello,
Originally, that column has Date as Data type. So, now what to do? IS there any other procedure to do this?

This too doesn't work. Is there any other way to do this.
With Format(), I am getting some thing like this:
OctAber
SetAmber
etc

I still think you have data that isn't a date. Can you take the SQL out of your dataset and manually run it in SMSS? What does that data look like in that field?

In SSRS you would use the CDate() function to change from varchar() to datetime; but the issue is that you have non-date values (Amber) mixed into that column. Check your source data, see what that shows.
HTH,
Rob
