How to count the number of times something occurs within a certain month

Hi,

Does anyone have a suggestion on how I should do the following?

I have a table column that contains dates like,

1 Feb 05
6 Feb 05
27 Feb 05
7 Mar 05
20 Mar 05

I want to be able to count Feb = 3 and Mar = 2.

Thanks!
Joyce

Hi Joyce

One way
=SUMPRODUCT(--(MONTH($A$1:$A$100)=2)
for February
Change to 3 for March etc. or put the Month number required in a cell and
refer to the cell
=SUMPRODUCT(--(MONTH($A$1:$A$100)=B1)

Regards

Roger Govier
