I have a Parameter named EnterReportDate in which the value is entered in Date format. When it appears as part of a header line, I want it spelled out. There must be a simple formula to do it, but I can not find it.
 
Assuming you parameter is a Date datatype (not a String)...

Drag the date parameter field onto the report, right click on it > Format Field. On the Date/Time tab, you should be able to find a suitable predefined format. Otherwise, click the Customize button, and format it however you like.

Thank You. Worked perfectly. And even more simple than I expected.
