And if you used SUMPRODUCT properly you wouldn't use -- and *1 <vbg

And if I had read the question probably the formula would have been,
=SUMPRODUCT(--(MONTH(A2:A26)=C2)*1)
And the range of summary information would be C2:D13. Changing years in
C2:C13 to Month numbers 1 to 12.

Hi,
You will need to calculate the number of dates in each year.
Assuming your dates are in A2:A26 place years you want to count in column
C. So for example place 2000 in C2, 2001 in C3 and so on till
C9 contains 2007.
In D2 enter the following formula
=SUMPRODUCT(--(YEAR($A$2:$A$26)=C2)*1)
Copy down to D9.
Now create a chart on the range C2:D9

Hi,
I have a list of dates spread out over several years and would like to
create a bar graph that shows how many of those dates occurred in each
month. Can anyone recommend a way to do this? I will have to do this a
number of times, so the more automated the process can be, the better.
Thanks,
George
