Manipulating dates

Hi
I have a field called paid to date and need to calculate the next date with
the same day of the month from getdate(). For example, paid to date of
13/02/2005 should give a next date of 13/02/2005 where getdate is 10/02/2005.
However, 13/02/2005 should return 13/03/2005 where getdate is 15/02/2005.
Any help in achieving this would be greatly appreciated"Dene" <Dene@.discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message

Can you post some DDL and SQL for what you are currently doing and what you
are trying to achieve.
I can't tell from your question what it is that you are after.

Hi Dene,
Is this what you are after?
declare @.basedate smalldatetime
declare @.now smalldatetime
set @.basedate = '20050213'
set @.now = '20050210'
SELECT DATEADD(month,
DATEDIFF(month, @.basedate, @.now)
+ CASE WHEN DAY(@.basedate) < DAY(@.now) THEN 1 ELSE 0 END,
@.basedate)
Best, Hugo
