Are you looking for 

 monname5.;

format?

 MonthName = put(month,monname5..);

[Kurt_Bremser]

You have two format catalogs in your fmtsearch path that were created on another platform, but catalogs are version- and platform-specific, so they can't be used, causing the ERROR messages. Get the code that was originally used to create the custom formats in there, remove those catalogs, and recreate them from code.

Alternatively, run (or have run) proc format with cntlout= on the original platform, transfer the resulting dataset(s) to your new platform, and use them as cntlin= in a proc format.
