This will return the number of rows that have dates in Column C, that match
your criteria dates in A1 and B1.

=SUMPRODUCT((C1:C100=A1)*(C1:C100<=B1))

You gave no indication that you had specific products to count in the
stipulated time period, and/or where they might be located.

I need to calculate the number of products despatched between 2 dates.
The date range is in cells A1 and B1 and the date of despatch in cells
C1 to C100. I need a calculation, for ecample that will return a count
of these items in, say, cell D1. Can anyone help?

Thanks
