Default find dates between in excel

I have 2 columns of data: one is name, the other is dates.

STEVE 4/19/2007
JOHN 3/22/2007

BOB 5/25/2007
STEVE 5/13/2007


I'd like to know how many times each name shows up in the month of May (or
whatever month I'm looking for). So, if I need a "findbetween" or some other
formula, I would love some help.

Thanks all, in advance!

Default find dates between in excel

this will count of BOB for MAY (month 5)

=SUMPRODUCT(--(A1:A27="BOB"),--(MONTH(B1:B27)=5))

For a specific month/year

=SUMPRODUCT(--(A1:A27="BOB"),--(MONTH(B1:B27)=5),--YEAR(B1:B27)=2007))


You can replace "BOB" with cell containing the text "BOB"

Default find dates between in excel

With names in Column A, and dates in Column B, one way would be to enter a
name to count in C1, and the number of the month (Jan=1, Feb=2, ... etc.) in
C2, and try something like this:

=SUMPRODUCT((A1:A50=C1)*(MONTH(B1:B50)=C2))

This first formula (for month only) works fine...but the second one (for
month & year) comes up with zeros only. What am I doing wrong? I copied
directly from here to my worksheet....

name to count in C1, and the number of the month (Jan=1, Feb=2, ... etc.)
in
C2, and try something like this:


Another possibility which is more "visual" (you will be able to see the
matching rows). Assuming the same set up above, put this formula in D1...

=A1&" - "&MONTH(B1)

and copy down to the end of your data. Then put this formula in E1...

=IF(AND(A1=C$1,MONTH(B1)=C$2),COUNTIF(D$1:D$10000, "="&A1&" - "&C$2),"")

(using a number larger than the number of rows of data you have for the
10000 I used) and copy down to the end of your data (or beyond if your data
can grow). Now, when you put a name in C1 and a month number in C2, each
matching row will be flagged in column 'E' with the total number of hits for
that match.

Sorry ... my typo ....

=SUMPRODUCT(--(A1:A27="BOB"),--(MONTH(B1:B27)=5),--(YEAR(B1:B27)=2007))

Default find dates between in excel

hi anne,
by using filters u could do this.You can find the filter option in
DataFilterAuto Filter. By clicking this you could find dropdowns come in
the first row.There u cold go for custom where u could give two dates and
thus could filter the range of datas to clear the filter click on the
dropdown and give all values.

Regards
Arun
