    Not directly, though you could convert the month number inot a date.

    SELECT DATENAME(month,'1900/' + CAST(monthNumber AS VARCHAR(2)) + '/01')

    Heh, too much VARCHAR in that for me, Gail... 😛

    SELECT DATENAME(mm,DATEADD(mm, MonthNumber-1,0))

    RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
    First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
    ________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

    Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.
