Hi,

I am trying to calculate the number of arrivals for the month of August on a
spreadsheet. The month appears in column E, the date in column F and I have
FALSE for departures and TRUE for arrivals in column G.

I have tried:
=SUMPROD(--TEXT($F$3:$F$276; "aaamm")="200708),--($G$3:$G$276=TRUE)
I have also tried
=SUMPROD(--TEXT($E$3:$E$276; "August")),--($G$3:$G$276=TRUE)

both formulas give me 0 when I should be getting 23

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks
Jeannie


but I get 0 as a result when I should be getting 21

=SUMPRODUCT(--($E$3:$E$276;"August"),--($G$3:$G$276))

or maybe

=SUMPRODUCT(--($E$3:$E$276,"August"),--($G$3:$G$276))

Try this:

=SUMPRODUCT(--(TEXT($F$3:$F$276, "yyyymm")="200708"),--$G$3:$G$276)

Thanks, that last formula is actually the one I use for each month, however,
for some reason, it refuses to work for August, September, October, November
and December, it always gives me 0. I copied the format from the last day in
July, changed the date to the August date, then recopied that date on the
other rows for about 10 rows, and it still gives me 0. Which is why I
decided to add a column with the month spelled out. Any ideas?

Sorry, I guess I had a really "blonde moment". I just realized that the
formula that worked so well from January to July was actually copied from
another worksheet, which only had 276. This other worksheet that keeps
giving me 0 for August to December has 576 rows.
Now, I have a new problem, if I try to change the range from $F$3:F4F276 to
$F$3:$F$576 I get #VALUE, even for the formulas that worked previously
(January to July).
Any further help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks

Ok, glad to hear you got it straightened out. Thanks for letting us know.
