Hi,
Try it this way bit be aware of some pitfalls. The 'test' is case sensitive.
I'm assuming you have the text value of January in M3, if it's a properly
formatted date then this won't work.
To avoid the case issue you could use
Select Case ucase(RPT_Date)
and in the case statements us JANUARY etc
RPT_Date = Sheets("Lookup_Values").Range("M3")
Select Case RPT_Date
Case Is = "January"
' Perform my actrions
Exit Sub
Case Is = "Febuary"
'Perform my actrions
Exit Sub
End Select

When competing hypotheses are otherwise equal, adopt the hypothesis that
introduces the fewest assumptions while still sufficiently answering the
question.
