A spreadsheet containing two colums. Column A has dollar amount entries.
Column B has date entries. These entries are entered throughout the month
and every month of the year. I need a formula that will sum the amounts
in
column a only if they are during the month of march from column b (for
example)
I think you want SUMIF
