If you mean that you want to show the name of the month and the year in full format, then you can do it with the Format menu. Put the date into the cell you want and then put the cursor on that cell. Go to the Format menu and pick Cells. Under number you will see a list of different formats. It should already be on Date in the Category list on the Type side. You will be able to choose various formats for dates. You can also go to the bottom of Category list and pick Custom. That will allow you to do all sorts of date formats, even including showing the day of the week.
If you want to extract the number of a month from a date you can use the Month function. If your date is in cell C3 then the formula would be put into another cell and it would be:
=Month(C3)
To get the year you use the Year function:
=Year(C3)
To get the number of the day of the month, use the day function:
=Day(C3)
You do not. Excel does not record the change date of an individual cell.
=MONTH(date) returns a number of the month (1-12).

Refresh it.
The short answer is maybe, but you will not change the file date just by opening the file. When you save a file, it will display the date and time when you saved it (as set in your computer date-time settings). Excel will ask you if you want to save the file when you exit (assuming you did not change the default settings). You can choose to leave the file as is (same file date) or save the file (current file date). An exception to this would be determined by your auto save settings on Excel. If you make any changes to the file, Excel might automatically save the file (thus, changing the file date). Additionally, windows may save the last-accessed date. Bottom line, if you want to view an Excel file and not change the date, save the file to a different name as soon as you open it. Then examine the file copy.
That's a moving target, of course, since your birth date and time are fixed, but "now" continues to change. You can use a spreadsheet (such as Excel or Open Office Calc) to perform these calculations. If your birth date and time are in cell A1, the calculation "=now()-A1" will display your age in days and decimal days. You can then use other functions to convert this to years, months, hours or minutes.
Use conditional formatting to set the condition when you enter a particular date.

I you have a worksheet that updates the date in a cell to the current date, edit the cell to change to the date you want displayed. Most likely, the cell is using the formula =NOW() or some other date function to automatically assign a date to the worksheet. When you replace the formula with the date you want to display, your date will remain until you change it.
