I am trying to figure out how to take a date (01/01/05) in A1, and
months in A2 (the months could vary from 12 all the way up to 60)and
have A3 show me the actual date format of 01/01/05 + 60 months =
01/01/10 or whatever it would be due to the leap years and all. Needs
to be triggered by input from A2. Thanks in advance for any help!!!!


Effective Date (A1) 01/01/05
Term in Months (A2) 60
Expiration Date (A3) ________

=Date(Year(A1),Month(A1)+A2+1,0)

Would give you the end of the month


=Date(Year(A1),Month(A1)+A2,1)

Would give you the first of the month.

for a formula in a worksheet (in cell A3):
= Date(Year(A1), Month(A1)+ A2, Day(A1))

in VBA:
(In the Worksheet_Change event):

Select Case Target.Address
Case "$A$2"
Range("A3") = DateAdd("m", Range("A2"), Range("A1"))
Case Else
'Do nothing
End Select

or, if you wanted this to trigger whenever a value in row 2 changes (not
just A2):

Select Case Target.Row
Case 2
Target.Offset(1,0) = DateAdd("m", Target, Target.Offset(-1,0))
Case Else
'Do nothing
End Select
