oops.. ok..lol I think I understand it.
And here you're saying, if the resulting month is January, print the heading. <cfif month(offsetDate) eq 1> <h1>Fiction #year(offsetDate)#</h1> </cfif> #DateFormat(offsetDate, "mmmm yyyy")#<br> I think this will work for me.

It's a variable containing the offset in months from the current month, i.e. 1 for next month, 2 for the month after that....
