Default COUNTIF doesn't work

Ok, but what month do the hours get charged to if/when the dates span more
than one month (if that's possible)? For example:

1/31/2009 15:00 to 2/1/2009 15:00 ... 24hrs

Do those hours get charged to Jan or Feb?

The formula in C2 is =B2-A2.

Then I'm trying to count the times that values in col. C are <=24 for each
of the 12 months. In my example it would be 2 for Jan. , 0 for Feb. etc.

I'm realizing that I certainly didn't state my dilemma clearly - apologies
for that.

OOPS! That was an error in my example.
I did it for clarity. It doesn't actually show in the works sheet.
Neither
does the " ' " in the year.

Sorry for all of the unneeded confusion. Thanks for bringing it to my
attention.

Ken, I believe you would need to remove the "hrs" from your values. I
believe EXCEL will view that as a text, thus not being able to make
the
compare.

The solution evades me.
