Try this:

    FSET float(y,m,d) trigger(MAX(realtoday(), date(y,m,d)))
    FSET due(y,m,d) "(" + (date(y,m,d)-trigdate()) + ")"

Then an entry like the following:

    REM [float(2006,4,1)] MSG File tax return [due(2006,4,15)]%

will then display on the current date (on or after April 1) as 

    File tax return (d)

where d is the number of days remaining before (or after when d is
negative) April 15.  Note that this reminder only appears on the
current date.
