I've just discovered that you have to be a little careful with this
method, depending on what values you're "filling in".

(example on Leopard, I assume same for SL)

set d to current date
--> date "Sunday 28 February 2010 12:00:00 am"
set day of d to 31
--> date "Wednesday 3 March 2010 12:00:00 am"
set month of d to 7
--> date "Saturday 3 July 2010 12:00:00 am"

A workaround is:

set d to current date
--> date "Sunday 28 February 2010 12:00:00 am"
set month of d to 1 -- because it has 31 days
set day of d to 31
set month of d to 7
--> date "Saturday 31 July 2010 12:00:00 am"
