Date to string

Hi all

Is there a function to convert date to string or numeral value to string?

VB has the function Cstr(<value>) which will return the value as string.

The QV function MonthName(today()) returns Mar 2013 but that is only the presentation of the numerical value behind.

I am trying to get a string 'Mar 2013' out of it.

Thanks
