Hi,

I have 2 columns of data in sheet 1 as follows:
B C
Open 08/30/05
Closed 08/01/05
Closed 08/30/05
Open 08/03/05
Closed 07/01/05
Closed 07/02/05

In sheet 2, I would like to count how many cells a
1. have august as their dates
2. open on the month of august
3. closed on the month of august
4. etc.

so far, i'm trying this count if formula out, but it doesn't work.
1. =COUNTIF(Sheet1!$C$1:$C$65000,"08/**/**")
2.
=SUM(IF((Sheet1!$B$1:$B$65000="Open"),IF(Sheet1!$C $1:$C$65000="08/**/**",1,0)))
3.
=SUM(IF((Sheet1!$B$1:$B$65000="Closed"),IF(Sheet1! $C$1:$C$65000="08/**/**",1,0)))

i don't know if it's the wildcard characters, or if it's the format of
my date. please help!! thanks!!
