I have a single colum of dates that I would like to format somehow that
show only dates of the current month. I send my spreadsheet to my
customer quarterly and would like it to roll the date to the next
applicable month with a today or now formula if possible.

To answer your first question, you could use a helper column: if your dates
are in Column A, starting in A2, in B2 you could enter =Month(A2) and format
as general. You could then filter on the month you want in Column B and then
hide the column.

I'm not sure what you're looking for in the second question.

example:
column G
13-jan-06
20-apr-06
22-jun-06
24-jun-06

I would like the current month "highlighted" other month blanked out or
non visible. With that I only send this randomly so I need for when they
open it be it may, june or whenever the corresponding month is
"highlighted"

You should be able to do what you want with conditional formatting
(FormatConditional Formatting...)

For example, a date in the current month would use the formula:

=month(today())=month(a1)
