month(theDate[,value])

Alternatively, use Date.month.

month(theDate)

returns the month from the theDate date/time expression, which may simply be a date-type attribute value.

month(theDate,value)

creates a new date based on the theDate date/time expression, but in which the month is value. theDate is not changed - unless theDate is an attribute and the attribute is re-setting itself:

$MyDateA = month($MyDate,14) $MyDate is unaltered

$MyDate = month($MyDate,14) $MyDate is changed

Examples. If $MyDate is July 4,2009, then

$MyDate=month($MyDate,5) 

will change $MyDate to May 4, 2009.
