What if the date reference is in a range. Should have mentioned this in
the original posts.

on sheet 1 I have a list of names in column A and a SUMIF in column B.
The SUMIF looks at column B on sheet 2 for the range, the name in
column A on sheet 1 for the criteria and column C on sheet 2 for the
sum range.

Column A on sheet 2 has a list of dates which I want to incorporate
into the SUMIF function so that the values in column C sheet2 are
summed where the name in column b sheet2 equals the name picked from
the list in A sheet 1 but only when the date in column A sheet 2 is
above a certain value.

Hope thats clear enough and thank for the early suggestion Bob
