Colin's script works great. But here is just another approach to get
you into lists:
monthList =
["January","February","March","April","May","June","July","August","September","October","November","December"]
monthNumber = systemdate().month
sdMonth = monthList[monthNumber]
(Also no if statements - and yes, it could be built into a single line also:
sdMonth =
getAt(["January","February","March","April","May","June","July","August","September","October","November","December"],
systemdate().month)
