Calendar.AddMonths Method

Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.

When overridden in a derived class, returns a DateTime that is the specified number of months away from the specified DateTime.

Namespace:  System.Globalization
Assembly:  mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public MustOverride Function AddMonths ( _
    time As DateTime, _
    months As Integer _
) As DateTime
public abstract DateTime AddMonths(
    DateTime time,
    int months
)

Parameters

Return Value

Type: System.DateTime
The DateTime that results from adding the specified number of months to the specified DateTime.

Exceptions

Exception Condition
ArgumentException

The resulting DateTime is outside the supported range of this calendar.

ArgumentOutOfRangeException

months is outside the supported range of the DateTime return value.

Remarks

The months value is added to the specified DateTime. If months is negative, the resulting DateTime is earlier than the specified DateTime.

The day part of the resulting DateTime is affected if the resulting day is not a valid day in the resulting month of the resulting year. It is changed to the last valid day in the resulting month of the resulting year. The year part of the resulting DateTime is affected if the resulting month is outside the year of the specified DateTime. The era part of the resulting DateTime is affected if the resulting year is outside the era of the specified DateTime. The time-of-day part of the resulting DateTime remains the same as the specified DateTime.

For example, suppose that the current calendar has 12 months, where the fourth month has 30 days and the tenth month has 31 days. If the specified month is the tenth month, the specified day is the 31st day of that month, and the value of the months parameter is 6, the resulting year is one more than the specified year, the resulting month is the fourth month, and the resulting day is the 30th day, which is the last day of the resulting month.

If the value of the months parameter is negative, the resulting DateTime is earlier than the specified DateTime.

The Kind property of the returned DateTime value always equals DateTimeKind.Unspecified. You can preserve the Kind property of the time parameter by calling the DateTime.SpecifyKind method, as the following example shows.

returnTime = DateTime.SpecifyKind(cal.AddMonths(time, months), time.Kind)
returnTime = DateTime.SpecifyKind(cal.AddMonths(time, months), time.Kind);

Examples

The following code example demonstrates the members of the Calendar class.
