Let ( [ f = Floor ( theIncrease/12 ) ; z = (Floor ((Month(theDate) + theIncrease) / 12 )) * 12 ] ; Case( (Month(theDate) + theIncrease) > 12 and ( Mod ( (Month(theDate) + theIncrease) ; 12) = 0); "12" & "-" & (Year(theDate) + (f+1) ) ; (Month(theDate) + theIncrease) > 12 and ( Mod ( (Month(theDate) + theIncrease) ; 12) ≠ 0); ((Month(theDate) + theIncrease) - z) & "-" & (Year(theDate) + (f+1)); (Month(theDate) + theIncrease) & "-" & Year(theDate) ) ) Click to copy

I needed a quick function to give me the proper month and more importantly the proper year in the future if given a start date and a nubmer of months to project the date into the future.
