You can't really check if it is a date since dates are plain numbers
formatted as dates with date 0 on jAN 0 1900, however you can check for
numbers in the range
(there is a function called CELL("format",cell) but it is not reliable since
if the format changes it will change as well
=SUMPRODUCT(--(ISNUMBER(Range))
will count cells with numbers, if they are text you can use
ISTEXT instead of ISNUMBER

In a column, there are entries with dates (in MM/DD/YYYY format). How can I
count the number of cells that have dates in them? I do not want to input a
criteria for the date. I just would like the number of cells that have any
date in it.
Thanks!
