Default counting age groups

hi Max,
thanks for your prompt reply. I adjusted the formula to suit my workbook as
follows:

=SUMPRODUCT(('Main Data'!E10:E9654<"")*(DATEDIF('Main
Data'!E10:E9654,TODAY(),"y")=10)*(DATEDIF('Main
Data'!E10:E9654,TODAY(),"y")<15))

but i'm getting an #NUM! error .. any idea why?

Assume DOBs are within A2:A100

.. number of students between 10 and 15 years:

=SUMPRODUCT((A2:A100<"")*(DATEDIF(A2:A100,TODAY() ,"y")=10)*(DATEDIF(A2:A100,TODAY(),"y")<=15))

.. number of students older than 15:

=SUMPRODUCT((A2:A100<"")*(DATEDIF(A2:A100,TODAY() ,"y")15))

I have a column where i put the students' Dates of Birth. I want a formula
that calculate different age groups from that column.
for example: formula to calculate the number of students between 10 and 15
years, and another formula to calculate the number of students older than 15.
How do i do that?
Many thanks - Tendresse
