I have varying dates in D:D and different names in F:F such as

5/1/09 splmd2
6/1/09 armd4b
12/01/09 carbdp

the names repeat as wil some of the dates.
I have tried different ways to count...I want to know how may splmd2 (or
whatever names are in the column) do I have that fall in a range greater than
a specific date. Like
=Countif D:D +=G1(a date to be determined in that cell) and if F:F=H1 (one
of the names listed above)
