Hi !

I have data that is organized like this

Grid Date
1 11/10/12
1 11/10/12
1 15/10/12
1 1/1/13
1 5/1/13
1 10/1/13
2 4/12/12
2 5/12/12
2 7/12/12
2 10/4/13
3 1/1/12
3 2/1/12
3 3/1/12
3 4/1/12
4 10/6/11
4 11/6/11
4 15/6/11
4 17/6/11
5 19/6/11
5 20/5/11
5 22/5/11

So what I'd like to know is how many days each grid has. For eg:grid 1 has been sampled form 11/10/12 to 15/10/12 in Oct, that's 5 days and similarly in January 13 it has 5 days. grid 2 worked in dec12 for 4 days from 4th to 7th.

So I would like my output to look like this

grid Jan11 Feb11 MAr11 ....Oct12...dec12
1 5 0 0 5 0
2 0 0 0 0 4

Please help !
Thanks in advance!

please look he

for "Grid"
There is a suggestion with formula and one with Pivot.
I would prefer Pivot.

Hi !
Thanks Claus, but what I needed is,(and I don't think I explained that properly)is for it to show me the total number of days a grid has been sampled. so in my data if you look at grid 4 it worked from 10th to 17th so I would like the output to show me 8 days for jun-11 similarly for the other grid 1 it worked for 5 days in october-12(11th to 15th) and 10 days in jan-13(1st-10th)

Can this be done?
Please help.
Thanks,
Nitya

I'm so sorry, but if you don't mind , could you please explain the formula,I didn't quite get it.

In the E1:Z1 I have dates with always the first of month.In E2:E6 there
a the unique values of the grid.
In F2 I check if there is a Max if the grid in column A is the grid of
E2 and the month and the year in column B is month and year of F1.
If so I substract the Max with this conditions and the Min with this
conditions and add 1 for the start day because the difference is one day
less than the count of days.

Hi Claus,
Thanks for the explanation. I have one question - is it necessary to check if there is a max in f2? Can I directly check if the month and year of column b is the same as f1 then subtract the max and min with the same conditions you have provided? what is the reason for putting the max function?

Thanks again for the explanation !

if you e.g. have 10.06.2015 until 17.06.2015 and you substract Max with
Min you get 7 but there are 8 days. So you have to add 1. If you don't
check for Max and directly calculate Max-Min+1 you get the wrong result
of 1 if there are no days with the conditions.
