You can use the DateAdd function to add or subtract a specified time interval
from a date. This will take care of any January issues.

See help on this function

cmbPer.Value = Format(Date, "mm")-1

this is exactly how I am doing it. My fiscal year starts
in Feb so Oct is actually per 9, but my result is "9"
not "09". Any thoughts?

Think you are already there. From the immediate window:

dt = dateserial(2004,2,3)
? Format(dt, "mm")
02

Hello All,

I have some code that places the numeric value of the
current month (i.e. 12, 11) in a combo box when the
userform is activated. I would like it to show a "0"
in
front of the single-digit months (09). I am using the
following code on userform activate.

cmbPer.Value = Format(Date, "mm")

I am using a combo box to give the user the option of
selecting a different month, if necessary.
Thanks
