Default how to calculate a month without the full date?

Hi Bob,

Why 5? Erm, why not? Seems strange, though, that Bondi chose 5 too!! Just
making sure to give it enough! <vbg

Hi Andy,

You did the same as Bondi, added 5. Why 5? I would have added 4 (if I had
remembered Feb <g).

Hi

Nice one Bob!!
On my machine, though, it falls over on February. This should help:
=TEXT(DATEVALUE("28-"&A1&"-"&YEAR(TODAY()))+5,"mmmm")

This might be a stupid question.

i have a cell (A1), with a month's name: "April"
How do i use a formula so cell B1 will show "May"

and when i change A1 to "June" Cell B1 will show "July"?

Basically a calulation but without a full date

Thanks
Jared
