BTW,
I didn't test for the year, so the formula will return *all* rows that
contain the month of August for *any* year.

To include the year in the reference, just revise the Text() functions to:

(TEXT(Data!$C$2:$C$30,"mmyy")=TEXT($J$4,"mmyy"))

I'm assuming that Column C is in the Data sheet, and the *array* formula
and
J4 are *not*:


=SMALL(IF((Data!$AE$2:$AE$30000)*(TEXT(Data!$C$2: $C$3000,"mmm")=TEXT($J$4,"
mmm")),ROW(Data!$AE$2:$AE$3000)),ROWS($1:1))

Array formulas must be entered with CSE, <Ctrl <Shift <Enter, instead
of
the regular <Enter, which will *automatically* enclose the formula in
curly
brackets, which *cannot* be done manually.
You *must also* use CSE when revising the formula.

*After* the CSE entry, copy down as needed.

How do I include a date limitation for a selected month into this array,
the
date column is €œC€� the date is in J4 enters as 8/1/07
This returns the correct row numbers



=SMALL(IF(Data!$AE$2:Data!$AE$30000,ROW(Data!$AE$ 2:Data!$AE$3000)),ROW(1:1)
)




=SMALL(IF(Data!$AE$2:Data!$AE$30000,ROW(Data!$AE$ 2:Data!$AE$3000)*MONTH(Dat
a!$C$2:Data!$C$3000=MONTH($J$4))),ROW(1:1))

Thanks SPB
