You have lost me completely.

Your sample data has priorities of 120873, but talk about 6?
Does that formula work, but you just want to extend it to test a date? If
so, what column is the date in, and what do you want to test it for?

Priority 0 1 2
1 60 12

The above is an extract of the report i want to generate. For example at

the
moment behind the number 60 is the code below.

=SUMPRODUCT(--(Sheet1!C1:C30000=1),--(Sheet1!D1:D30000=""))

I want to adapt it so that it will only select those records for a
particular month and year based on the basic start field.( see earlier in
thread). The month and year will will change so as stated I thought of

using
a list. My priority fields range from 0-6, but these are fixed.

Conditional counting. I just want the count of the priority field for a
particular value, when column 4 is null and the basic start date is

looking
at a particular month and year.

to
do, conditional counting, or conditional filtering?

Right, thanks for everbodies help so far, but this one has me really
stiched
up.

=COUNT(Sheet1!A:A,"12*")-COUNTIF(Sheet1!D:D,"HUD*")
=SUMPRODUCT(--(Sheet1!C1:C30000=1),--(Sheet1!D1:D30000=""))

i have used both the above bits of code plus others to interrogate

the
data
to produce a standard report. Data is to be imported into a

spreadsheet
monthly and then analysed on a separate worksheet. I now need to

focus on
counting the priority (say 3) with a corrsponding null in col 4 but

based
only on the month I want to interrogate, say june. For the above

data i
should get 2 events. I don't want the dates to be hardcoded as the

data
will
change. I had wondered about a drop down list with 1-12

corresponding to
the
months and a year one and then the code above could be tweaked to

look at
the
month/year selected by the user and then 'filter' my data

accordingly.

i'll be impressed if this gets cracked.
