Finding dates ahead without counting

[Loracj]

My boss is an attorney (no, I don't hold it against him!) who needs to figure
out dates ahead and says there is or was a way to do that using Calendar.
His example is starting with today's date and going out 85 days. I can
figure it easily on Excel but he said they used a function on Calendar when
he was working in a law office and doesn't remember how to do it. I can't
find anything out there to help us. Does anyone know a short cut that
doesn't involve Excel or counting the days?

open an appointment form on the date he needs to start from, type 85d in the
date field and tab out.
