You might want to consider one of the other two formulas instead of mine...
those both account for the year as well as the month (it might not important
now, but may be when you get to next January).

Thanks for your quick responses, I will put in the salespersons name
J2:J188="Anthony", the 0 argument is to check that there's an amount in
the
field...

You could use this instead of what you posted...

=SUMPRODUCT((MONTH(D2:D188)=1)*(D2:D188<"")*(L2:L 1880))

but I would note that this does not include a conditional test for an
individual sales person (which your original question seemed to indicate
might be your goal).
