Increment Month in While loop

    LET vDate = null;

    LET vStartDate = MonthStart(AddMonths(Date(Today()),-21));

        LET vEndDate = Monthend(AddMonths(Date(Today()),-1));

        LET vDDStartDate = Num(Date#(MonthEnd(addmonths(today()-1,-2)),'MM/DD/YYYY'))-3;

        LET vTest =Date(monthend($(vEndDate)));

  

       

       Do while vStartDate <= vEndDate   // Need the data from past 21 month to last month.

    FOR vDate =  date(AddMonths('$(vStartDate)',-2),'YYYY-MM-DD') to date(MonthEnd('$(vStartDate)'),'YYYY-MM-DD'); // FOR each month i need to look back at 2 months of data to get repeat customer in the last 3 months

    LET vDate = Date($(vDate), 'YYYY_MM_DD');

        Customer:         

        LOAD     ID

              FROM [lib://QVD/QVD/E_Cust$(vDate).qvd](qvd);   // FILES ARE SAVED DAILY FOR PREVIOUS DAY _ NEED TO LOOP THROUGH 3 month of data to get all cust and ID

    Next vDate;

        CUSTFINAL:

            LOAD DISTINCT
