Date Count
I must be going senile, as I can usually crack these things, but I am having
massive problems counting dates. In column A I have the date entered as follows: =TEXT(WORKDAY(A636,1),"dd-mmm-yy") I need to count every date where the year is equal to the current year. Please put me out of my misery and I apologise for such a dumb ass question. Richard |

Thanks for the reply. I found the issue was that I had entered =sumproduct(--(year(a:a)=year(today()))) with there being a lable (column header) in cell a2. I kept getting a return of #NUM! Is there a way around the label issue.

I forgot to mention Sumproduct will not accept A:A as a range

Since you have specified an entire column as your argument, I am assuming you are using Excel 2007. That being the case, you can try this **array** formula: =SUM(--(IF(ISNUMBER(--A:A),YEAR(A:A))=YEAR(TODAY()))) To enter an array formula, hold down <ctrl<shift while hitting <enter. Excel will place braces {...} around the formula. If you are not using Excel 2007, then your arguments must not encompass an entire column. e.g: =SUM(--(IF(ISNUMBER(--A1:A65535),YEAR(A1:A65535))=YEAR(TODAY()))) --ron |

No, I am not using 2007, I just tried a:a sorry it is lack of sleep.
