OK, I see now that you did do it, but incorrectly. Use this:

var s = this.getField("DatePerformed").valueAsString;
if (s=="") event.value = "";
else {
	var d = util.scand("mm/dd/yyyy", s);
	d.setMonth(d.getMonth() + 3);
	event.value = util.printd("mm/dd/yyyy", d);
}

You need to add another condition that checks if the value of the first field is empty, as that would be converted to the current date if you use scand on it.

If you post your code as text it would be easier to help you out with this...

Ooops...Sorry about that... Here it is

var d = util.scand("mm/dd/yyyy",this.getField("DatePerformed").valueAsString);

if (this.getField("DatePerformed").valueAsString="") event.value = "";

else d.setMonth(d.getMonth() + 3);

event.value = util.printd("mm/dd/yyyy", d);
