Actually, I think mine just reached your first but everyone had 
essentially the same suggestion.  By the way, the suggestion about 
subtracting from the 1st of the next month is perhaps smarter!  That 
way, you don't hv to worry about what the last day of the month is (31, 
30, 28, 29?)  I think it's really smart to just avoid all of that and go 
back from the start of the next month!

Cheers,
Mohit.
