Counting dates based on certain criteria
I have a col of dates (D1:D250) and another column (B1:B250) with 3 different
options. I want to know how many times option 1 happened when the month is Jan, Fec, etc. option A 5/8/2007 option B 4/10/2007 option B 5/11/2007 Thanks in advance for you help... |
Counting dates based on certain criteria
For OptionA and January, try:
=Sumproduct(--(B1:B250="OptionA"), --(Month(D1:D250)=1)) do you need to differentiate between Jan 2007 and Jan 2008 or just match to Jan regardless of the year??

That usually means you have #VALUE! error value(s) within your data, either in col B and/or col D, or col D might contain some cells with text (instead of real dates/numbers). Check it and clear these cells. Above said, perhaps a more unambiguous/robust summation to try, as hinted in JMB's question to you would be something like this: =SUMPRODUCT(--(B1:B250="Option A"), --(TEXT(D1:D250,"mmmyyyy")="Aug2007")) -- Max Singapore http://savefile.com/projects/236895 xdemechanik --- |
