future date testing

I need to test a routine that takes effect a month in the future.

Anyone know of a technique to fool a  filePro session into thinking the 
date is a month into the future without actually changing the system date?
I have a test setup configured using $PFDIR on the production box ... so 
actually changing the date isn't feasible.

I was hoping I could manipulate the date by setting TZ in the test users 
environment ... but I can only manipulate that by one day (unless 
there's a syntax I don't know about).

Thanks.
