hello,

How do I add 1 calendar month to a date, regardless of the number of days in
the month?

Thanks

Hi
Maybe this : =DATE(YEAR(A1),MONTH(A1)+1,DAY(A1))
Change A1 for your needs.

Depends on what you want for "one month after Jan 31", for example.

For most purposes, the preferred answer is Feb 28 (or 29 in leap years). In
that case, use EDATE(A1,1). If you get a #NAME error, see the Help page for
EDATE.

If Mar 2 (or 3) is acceptable, use DATE(YEAR(A1),1+MONTH(A1),DAY(A1)).

Depends on what you mean.

What is Jan 31 + 1 month? in your specifications?

If the answer is Feb 28, then:

=MIN(DATE(YEAR(A1),MONTH(A1)+1+{1,0},DAY(A1)*{0,1}))

or

=edate(a1,1)

If the answer is Mar 3, then:

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