I am trying to find a formula in Excel that will help me manage the following
report: I have 2 columns...the first gives a list of months...ex. Jan, Feb,
March, etc. I want a formula that will automatically populate the second
column with a month that is 3 months past the first column...ex. 1st column
is Jan 2nd is April. 1st column is Feb 2nd is May... Is this possible. I
don't want specific dates in the month...just the month itself.

This should do the trick for you.
'Borrowed' from a post a month or so back
Remember they are text so no date calculations can be done without more
string manipulation


=CHOOSE(MATCH(A1,{"Jan";"Feb";"Mar";"Apr";"May";"J un";"Jul";"Aug";"Sep";"Oct";"Nov";"Dec"},0),"Apr", "May","Jun","Jul","Aug","Sep","Oct","Nov","Dec","J an","Feb","Mar")
