    3) 24
    4) 24
    5) 28
    6) 28
    7) 30

    Month (Column B)
    1) 11/1/2009
    2) 11/1/2009
    3) 11/1/2009
    4) 12/1/2009
    5) 11/1/2009
    6) 12/1/2009

    Hi Amit,

    I have always found the content on this site very helpful - so thank you for that.

    So your file does logically work. However, I am working with a huge data set thus it would be to tedious to flag each unique customer ID.

    Best,
    Bryan

    I have included a PivotTable with the summary.

    Bryan,

    perhaps the Pivot Table is a more elegant solution.

    The attached sheet does away with the helper columns. Please note that the formula in E3 is different from E4 and below.

    Cheers
