=SUMPRODUCT(--(A1:A100=C1),--(A1:A100<=C2),B1:B100)

=SUMPRODUCT(--(MONTH(A1:A100)=C3),B1:B100)

this assumes C3 will hold the Month NUMBER.

Hi

I have two columns, A containing dates from January 1 to December 31,
and B containing values entered against the dates.

Without creating range names, what's the shortest formula to:-

1. sum the values between any two given dates (contained in say cells
C1 and C2)

2. the total for any given month nominated in say C3

Thanks for any ideas
