Pete and Toppers,

Thanks for the information, I took what Toppers wrote and just broke it down
till I found out what I was doing wrong. Pete, yes I did do that, it was a
data error on my part. Thanks for the quick lesson.

Did you also put the sheet name (plus !) before the range A2:A100?

The -- effectively turns an array of Trues and Falses to an array of
1's and 0's, so they can be counted.

Hope this helps.

Ok, I copied the formula over and it still returns a value of 0. I have the
data in a seperate sheet, so right before the C2, I added the sheet name and
!. I am not sure what I am doing wrong. Does this formula have to be run on
the sheet where the data is? Also, for my own learning, what are the two --
for?
Thanks,

I have a spreadsheet with many many dates that I need to graph/chart. I want
to chart the number of RFPs I received in each year. How do I count on
column C which is a date column to see the number for any given year?
Thanks,
Tim
