countif with two criteria one a column of dates?
I have two columns and am entering the following formula
=COUNTIF($B$2:$B$436,"**-AU-****")+COUNTIF($A$2:$A$436,"**/**/2005") The wildcards in the B column are used to show that I only want to count the cells in that column that have AU in the middle. I then want to break it down futher by counting how many times 2005 appears in the corresponding cell of column A This is not working - where am I going wrong please? -- Thanks as always Lise |

If that -AU- has to be in the 3rd to 6th character:
=sumproduct(--(mid($b$2:$b$436,3,4)="-AU-"), --(year($a$2:$a$436)=2005)) If it can be anywhe =sumproduct(--(IsNumber(search("-AU-",$B$2:$B$436))), --(Year($A$2:$A$436)=2005)) Use Find if that -AU- is different from -au- (case matters). Adjust the ranges to match--but you can't use whole columns (except in xl2007+). =sumproduct() likes to work with numbers. The -- stuff changes trues and falses to 1's and 0's.

To meet both criteria:
=SUMPRODUCT((MID(A2:A436,4,2)="AU")*(YEAR(B2:B436) =2005)) -- Gary''s Student - gsnu201002 "Lise" wrote: I have two columns and am entering the following formula =COUNTIF($B$2:$B$436,"**-AU-****")+COUNTIF($A$2:$A$436,"**/**/2005") The wildcards in the B column are used to show that I only want to count the cells in that column that have AU in the middle.
