Please respond
to ORACLE-L
Not sure if you want this from sql or unix
but there is the last_day function
eg select last_day(sysdate) from dual
to get the last date
or
select to_char(last_day(sysdate),'dd') from dual
to get the day portion only.

Try this:
select trunc(add_months(sysdate,1),'MM')-1
from dual;
