Basically I want to add a CROSS-TAB report. If I use a text value of the month, it will display month names in ascending order with respect to alphabetic characters like April will be on the top. I want to display month name in the order in which normally they are displayed. Jan-Feb-Mar………….
Actually CR9 has made it much easier with the use of merge modules.

Have you tried wrapping a function around your date to pass the displayed value, instead of the real fully-qualified date behind your format, something like:
Value(customized date field syntax{Month}))
In Excel, you could also use a Format to only display the month, or you could actually use a function similar to the about to turn the Date into the text value of the Month.
