Default How do I get a formula to calculate the third Thursday of the

This answer kept my date as the 20th.... I.E. in B18 i had 11/20/2008, and
in c19 with the formula below (=date(year(b18),month(b18)+1,day(b18)). The
answer was 12/20/2008.
When i copied down, it gave me the 20th of every month following. however i
want the thursday (i.e. third Thurdsday).. (or specifically 12/18/2008 and
so on)....
