Hi John,

One possible reason in case of imported data that Excel doesn't treat them
as text, not even if they are formatted as text. Try convert Info!B column
with the TEXT function!

Why doesn't this formula work. Information is being pulled from an Access97
database into 'Info' worksheet. This information is then being analysed in
another worksheet using this formula in one of the cells, but it doesn't
recognise anything labelled 'May' seems count everything. Seperate cells for
other months.
