Get rid from second expression in list box

Hello Everyone,

Can anyone help me in getting rid of the second value from the list box?

I have a list box with Month field but the field is in numeric format. I want in text format.

So, I used  =if(Month1=2,'Feb',If(Month1=3,'Mar',if(Month1=4,'Apr','May'))) this formula in expression but getting the result in given in the attachment .

Thanks in advance for the help.

Use your expression not in the expression tab of the list box properties, but as calculated field / dimension on general tab (select <expression> from field drop down list and enter your expression).

You can also use something like

=Month(Makedate(2017, Month))

and maybe create a new field in the load script for that.

Are you using this on the expression tab or general tab? You need this on the general tab of list box properties
