One way to do this:

import java.util.Calendar;
import java.util.Date;
import java.text.Format;
import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;
public class AddYear {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
    Calendar date = Calendar.getInstance();
    date.setTime(new Date());
    Format f = new SimpleDateFormat("dd-MMMM-yyyy");
    System.out.println(f.format(date.getTime()));
    date.add(Calendar.YEAR,1);
    System.out.println(f.format(date.getTime()));
  }
}

Cheers, Neil :roll: :roll:
