10/23/06 11/04/06
05/07/06 11/07/06
04/30/06 11/15/06
04/30/06 11/20/06
05/28/06 11/29/06

What I want the result to look like:
(i.e. The calulation result of the first row Would Be 1 For Oct and 1 For
Nov.
After Caluculating the secon row the result would be 2 for Oct and 2 Nov.

Not sure I understand the question.
If you want to know how many months there are between two dates then use the
DATEDIFF function - look a Chips site www.cpearson.com for details as it is
not documented in Help
