Hi,

I have 2 columns of dates , one being the start and the other the end. I need to find out if a certain month falls between a start and an end date.

This is what my data looks like .

Startdate Enddate May-11 Jun-11 July-11........dec-13
2/5/2011 6/10/2011
2/10/2011 6/1/2012
2/4/2011 6/12/2012

Now if may 11 falls in between any of the start or end date i need the cell to display "yes" and so on for each month.

Please help!
Thanks in advance!

If the start dates are in column A and the end dates are in column B and the dates across the top are in C1, D1, E1, ..., then enter this formula in cell C2 and then fill down and across:
=IF(AND(C$1=$A2, C$1<=$B2), "Yes", "No")

Thanks Howard! An issue I have is those dates from column c onwards are typed, so I'm not sure Excel recognizes them as dates. How can I solve this ?

try in C TextToColumns. If the entry changes to real date copy it to the
right = Fill Month
Or write 01.05.2011 in C1 and format it MMM-YY and copa to the right

you can also change your text into a real date with following array
formula:
=DATE(2000+RIGHT(C1,2),MATCH(LEFT(C1,3),TEXT(ROW(1 :12)*28,"MMM"),0),1)
and insert the formula with CTRL+Shift+Enter

Hi Howard,

A problem I have with the formula you gave me is that if the start date is 12/5/2011 and the end date is 19/3/2012, it is diplaying "no" under may-11. I need it to display yes if May=11 is present in between the start date and end date. I'm not too worried about the dates, I just need the month. So if a month is present in between the start and end date I need that column to display "yes". What do I do ? Sorry if I haven't been able to explain it better.

in C2 try:
=IF(AND(EOMONTH($A2,-1)+1<=C$1,EOMONTH($B2,0)=C$1),"Yes","")
and copy down and to the right
