I got called in to work at 2am this morning even although I'm supposed to be
on holiday, (it's 4:15 am here now), and so I took the opportunity to test
it out on out companies Excel 2002 SP3 and I again got 1/11/06, (11/1/06 to
you). Perhaps there is a difference between the British and the American
versions.

No typo.

If I format a cell as mmm-yy and type in Nov-06 Excel (2002) shows it in
the formula bar as 11/6/2006.

If I don't preformat the cell and type in Nov-06 Excel automatically
converts it to 6-Nov and shows 11/6/2006 in the formula bar.

If I type in Nov-06 Excel evaluates it as Nov 6 2006 not Nov 2006

I assume that it is a typo because my XL97 evaluates Nov-06 to November
1 2006 not the 6th

Hold on there a second.......

In column A I have the month and Year "Nov-06".

If you have dates like Nov-06 how do you know what day of the month
that is?

If I type in Nov-06 Excel evaluates it as Nov 6 2006 not Nov 2006

Seems to me that you should use the full date.

Try this:

=SUMPRODUCT(--(ISNUMBER(A1:A10)),--(DAY(A1:A10)<12),C1:C10)
