Format Date for last month and year

[nirmal]

I am trying to get the last month and year by
=Format(Date(),"mmmm" & " " & "yyyy")
Here I am getting March 2023
Actually I am trying to get the sequential last mont with year like February 2023
Tried all, but in vain
Please guide

=Format(DateAdd("m",-1,Date()),"mmmm" & " " & "yyyy")

Thank you Sir
It worked as expected.
Thank Again

the format can be simplified:

=Format(DateAdd("m",-1,Date()),"mmmm yyyy")

Why would you think that Date() would give you the previous month?
