Victoria,
0CALMONTH2 is not supported with the C2DATE expression.
However, if you have 0CALMONTH, you can still do it using the C2DATE expression...
You would need to do something like this:
First make sure your date 0CALMONTH is included in the fields to be changed so that you can access it in your formula.  NOTE: This means you have to specify it when you are writing/reading a Key Figure.  In addition, you would probably have to include it in your foreach parameters, like below:
DATA MONTH TYPE 0CALMONTH.
DATA END TYPE D.
DATA BEG TYPE D.
DATA DAYS TYPE I.
*Executed for each month restricted by planning package
FOREACH MONTH.
  END = C2DATE (MONTH, E).
  BEG = C2DATE (MONTH, S).
  DAYS = END - BEG.
  {0AMOUNT2,MONTH} = {0AMOUNT1,MONTH} / DAYS.
ENDFOR.
If you do not have 0CALMONTH available, then you will not be able to do it this way.  Depending on the release of your system, you can call a function module from FOx as long as it is built in a specific way.  Use the 'i' (information) button for specific details on how to implement a function module in FOx, however at this point I would say you should evaluate whether or not to do this function in ABAP alltogether using a Function Module of type User Exit.
Hope this helps.
