I am trying to set up a formule that will show show the the date of the first
of each month from a date from another cell. For example.

In cell a1 I enter and arbitrary date, let say 7/1/06. In cell C1, the
formula calculates the day left in the month and shows the first date of the
next month, for example 8/1/06. then in cell D1, the formula calculates the
date of the next month, for example 9/1/06.

Is there such a formala?

Hi,

try = Date(year(a1),month(a1)+1,1)

hope this helps

Thank you very much.

This formula works perfectly.

Manthony --

If today's date is in A1 (perhaps as =today()), then try

B1 =EOMONTH(A1,0)-A1
C1 =EOMONTH(A1,0)+1
D1 =EOMONTH(A1,1)+1
etc.

Cell B1 will show the number of days until the end of the month, and C1, D1,
etc will show the first day of successive months.
