Using Variables with Edate 1

[WaterSprite]

[Dim x As Date, xx As Integer]

[x = Cells(1, 1).Value]
[xx = 12]
[Cells(2, 1).FormulaR1C1 = "=Edate(R1C,R1C2)"]

Can I use "Edate" with variables, as in the line of code below.
If I could at least figure out how to use a variable for 12 it would help a lot.

[Cells(2, 1).FormulaR1C1 = "=Edate(x,xx)"]

Thanks for any help.

It's necessary to build a formula string:

Cells(2, 1).Formula = "=Edate(" & CLng(x) & "," & xx & ")"
