    There are instructions at the top of the page explaining how to attach your sample workbook (yellow banner: HOW TO ATTACH YOUR SAMPLE WORKBOOK). Screenshots are of little practical use as we cannot manipulate them.

    A good sample workbook has just 10-20 rows of representative data that has been desensitised. It also has expected results mocked up, worked examples where required, relevant cells highlighted and a few explanatory notes.

    Re: Determining Sales per month

    and while you're at it... explain how you want that strange "02/16 - 05/23" entry handled. It's many things but it's not a date inside a single month...

    Re: Determining Sales per month

    Please forgive me for not following directions. Fudge.

    I have attached the test data. The blue highlighted is what I am needing help with.

    I did it manually for showing the desired outcome. I was hoping not to have to
    do each month manually.

    Is there a way. I changed the one with the two ship dates.

    Thank you very much for your time and assistances

    Re: Determining Sales per month

    1. In the BLUE area, delete the trailing spaces. "April " is not the same as "April".

    2. I do not believe your expected results. The dates fro some of the values are 2020, others are 2023. Does the YEAR not matter?

    This delivers your expected results:

    =SUMPRODUCT(--(TEXT($D$4:$D$18,"mmmm")=[@Column2])*$C$4:$C$18)

    Re: Determining Sales per month

    Sir..

    Forgive me. I copied the worksheet from a several worksheet page that was to big to send. When I did that the year changed for some reason.

    Forgive me for my ignorance.. what do you mean by delete the trailing spaces.

    Trailing spaces. The space after April (red) makes it different from April (green).

    "April " is not the same as "April"

    It's caused by sloppy data entry.
