Do you want to sum quarterly based on a column of dates and amounts? If so
use

=SUMPRODUCT(--(A1:A365=--"2005-01-01"),--(A1:A365<=--"2005-03-31"),B1:B365)

for the date range from Jan 1 to Mar 31

Hi all,
I have a yearly cost in a column, I need to create another column for
quarterly cost with the source taken from yearly cost column. Am I right
to
choose offset funtion in this case and if yes, how to set the correct one
(especially regarding the "height" in the function criteria).
Any help would be much appreciated.
