Default formulas based on a date

Hello,

In cell A1, I have a date, say, May 10, 2003
In cell B1, I want to input a formula so that it returns the first of the
following month, in this case June 1, 2003

If it were Dec 1, 2002 in cell A1, I want the formula to return Jan 1, 2003
in cell B1

Please help me out - Thanks

Al M.
