Default find dates between in excel

This first formula (for month only) works fine...but the second one (for
month & year) comes up with zeros only. What am I doing wrong? I copied
directly from here to my worksheet....

this will count of BOB for MAY (month 5)

=SUMPRODUCT(--(A1:A27="BOB"),--(MONTH(B1:B27)=5))

For a specific month/year

=SUMPRODUCT(--(A1:A27="BOB"),--(MONTH(B1:B27)=5),--YEAR(B1:B27)=2007))


You can replace "BOB" with cell containing the text "BOB"

I'd like to know how many times each name shows up in the month of May (or
whatever month I'm looking for). So, if I need a "findbetween" or some other
formula, I would love some help.

Thanks all, in advance!
