Try this:

=SUMPRODUCT((MONTH(A1:A7)=7)*(YEAR(A1:A7)=2008))

Hope this helps.

Help,

Been working on this spreadsheet and it is starting to drive me Mad, I am
trying to count a column which it contains text and numbers, I am trying to
count every cell that contains the month July with no success.

I have tried wild cards and a pivot table, this give me a total of 6 when
there is only 4.

What am I doing wrong - please help
