    Unhappy Auto Date Calculation

    Can somebody tell me if this is possible - here is what I would like to do -
    Cell A1 contains a date which will always be the 19th of the month formatted for example as 19/01/06: in the cells that follow this i.e. A2 - A12 I would like the date to automatically appear based on the what has been typed in cell A1 - for example: if 19/02/06 is typed in cell A1, cell A2 returns 19/03/06, A3 returns 19/04/06 and so on -

    I have tried to create a formula which allows for 30 and 31days cycle but am getting nowhere - can anyone help -

    In A2 put

    =DATE(YEAR(A1),MONTH(A1)+1,DAY(A1))

    copy down as long as needed


    will work as long as you don't use dates like 31/03/06 but since you said it
    will always be the 19th
    If you need to enter other dates like then 31st etc post back

    This works fine - but just wondered how would you also return Blank if the cell A1 is in fact blank?

    Many Thanks

    Question

    Please ignore last query - I have worked it out

    However - if I wanted to return date formated as for example Apr-06 etc in the cells following A1 - how would this look?

    Thanks
