Calculated formula contains a syntax error or is not supported

[Pavel48n0sh]

Hi!
I've a Date and Time column Revision Date.

And try to create a Calculated column Revision Date (dd mmm yyyy). It because I want to change a look of date and set to (dd mmm yyyy).

So, after added a formula =TEXT(Revision Date,"dd-mmm-yyyy"), I have an Error "The formula contains a syntax error or is not supported".

Could you help me please, how I can fix this problem?
Thx!

@Pavel48n0sh in your formula put Revision Date inside square brackets/parentheses.

@Pavel48n0sh Use below formula: 

=TEXT([Revision Date],"dd-mmm-yyyy")

Note: Sometimes comma(,) does not work in formula (I am not sure but it is based on something language or regional settings on your site). So, in that case use semicolon(;) instead of comma(,).

Thanks for your comment @RobElliott. I am just trying to help OP( @Pavel48n0sh ) here.

Here are the things I provided in my response & thoughts behind it:

1. Complete formula with correct syntax: OP can directly copy-paste & try it.
2. Note about regional/language settings: This may also be the problem for OP while using above formula. I have seen many people face this problem while using comma in formula instead of using semicolon.
3. Link to Microsoft official documentation: If above suggestions do not work for OP, he/she can read the official documentation, check for correct syntax and write the correct formula on his/her own now & in future.

If OP confirms my above response does not help him/her in any way, I will delete my previous response happily.
