Peter,

You can certainly do date arithmetic on the date value in the
cell.

Chip,

The only problem with this is it returns a label, which isn't
helpful if you
want to do date maths (I know this contributor didn't say he
wanted to, but I
do quite a lot)
My suggestion, although a bit unwieldy, does give you a
"valued" and
"mathable" date.
By the way, your web site is superb! Keep up the good work!

Pete (waiting to be proved wrong on the above...)
