Hi,

I'm trying to count the number of "date" occurrences on a particular month.
However in the same column, aside from dates, there are TEXT entries and
blank cells.

When I use the formula below it gives me a #VALUE!

Please edit the formula below so I can count the number of date occurences.

=SUMPRODUCT(--(MONTH('Date'!J2:J1116)=1))

Thank you.
